The ADA is currently recruiting participants for the Diabetes INSIDE multi-year quality improvement project. As a participant, you will be part of a learning collaborative focusing on system thinking and quality improvement capacity building across health care organizations, as well as health care professional education.

We are looking for institutions and practices that:

  • Service a diverse patient population 
  • Have a team of health care staff including primary care physicians, endocrinologist, cardiologist, and others
  • Are focused on improving the delivery of care for their patients

The quality improvement will focus heavily on patient health care outcome data to:

  • Facilitate the assessment of key processes for improvement opportunities at baseline
  • Monitor impacts of improvements throughout the initiative
  • Inform the identification of best practices to spread

Participating sites will receive grant money for this initiative. Please contact Carina Falcon at cfalcon@diabetes.org for more information.
