The program, which is yielding encouraging initial results, calls for modifications that lower a loan's interest rate, extend the life of the loan or defer payment on a portion of the principal.
Treatment trials focused on single risk factor modification have shown that lowering glucose, BP, and lipids substantially reduces CVD events and deaths in patients with type 2 diabetes (2– 4).

Big banks like Wells Fargo, which would need to be retooled to emphasize modifications over foreclosures, appear to favor modifications that do not lower payments or debts very much.
"That lowers your volatility".
Four main changes — higher plant density, slower rate of leaf appearance, lower nitrogen content, and reduced size of all organs — induced by the aerobic crop environment were responsible for three chains of modifications that resulted in lower biomass accumulation and finally lower grain yield.
Analysts at Credit Suisse have found that modifications that do not lower borrowers' monthly payments were more than twice as likely to become delinquent again than changes that reduced payments.
