Program Overview

The use of diabetes technology can be life-changing for the person living with diabetes. Much of diabetes care occurs in the primary care setting and members of the care team need to be skilled in discussing and initiating diabetes technology with their patients who are living with diabetes. Part 1 of this activity will inform and empower primary care providers to identify and implement diabetes technology for people with diabetes in the primary care setting. 

Learning Outcome

The diabetes care team will have an increase in knowledge of common diabetes technologies to aid in discussing diabetes technology with people with diabetes, referring to diabetes education, prescribing diabetes technology and follow up.

Learning Objectives

• Summarize common diabetes technologies and their benefits for people living with diabetes.
• Devise a plan to integrate diabetes technology into the primary care setting that includes shared decision-making, diabetes education, prescribing, coding/documenting, and follow-up.
• Discuss available diabetes technology resources for the provider and for the person living with diabetes.
