The COVID-19 pandemic has created new barriers to the provision of chronic illness care for health center patients. The HRSA Diabetes Quality Improvement Initiative is an agency-wide effort to improve diabetes outcomes and lower health care costs and is currently in its third year. MCN is working in support of the Improvement Initiative by assisting you to access resources and develop performance improvement skills that will enable you to re-focus how you address diabetes care in your mobile and agricultural worker populations. Clinicians working in health centers will be provided with training on how to effectively design a Performance Analysis and improvement project for their diabetic patient population. Diabetes care is a complex mix that includes medication, education, self-care behaviors and continuity of care. Adding the factors of mobility, immigration status and culture takes the challenge to another level. This webinar will also provide real case studies from health centers in
different parts of the country currently working with MCN’s clinical staff to improve their diabetes CQI systems.
