GoalsGoals

For diabetic patients served by nine public hospital clinics, our goal was to:• Improve care processes• Decrease complications• Reduce cardiovascular risk

Page 10: Overview and Results: What We Have Accomplished

Three Key Focus AreasThree Key Focus Areas

• Use of data and information systems to support pro-active care

• Control of clinical risk factors• Each team set goals, based on Bureau of Primary

Health Care Health Disparities Collaboratives

• Better use of self-management support strategies by patients and providers

Page 11: Overview and Results: What We Have Accomplished

Where did we start?Where did we start?

• 9 clinics serving over 13,000 diabetics; many poorly controlled

• All at risk for cardiovascular disease

• Each clinic chose a small pilot population of 100-200 patients of 1-3 physicians
