dc.description.abstract | Currently, healthcare providers in the United States are challenged in providing highquality
diabetes care due to the overburdened healthcare climate. The shared medical
appointments (SMAs) model is an innovative solution to address the chronic nature of
Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) and provide patients with comprehensive, cost-effective, and
personalized care. SMAs combine both medical appointments and disease management
education geared towards diagnosing knowledge gaps and equipping patients with
strategies to meet their healthcare goals. Literature shows that SMAs have been
effective in lowering A1c, blood pressure, and lipid levels. However, literature also shows
that SMAs for T2DM vary widely in their curriculum designs. This project aims to
complete a literature review that examines SMA curriculums in T2DM patients and
propose a new curriculum framework that is customizable to diverse patient
populations. This new curriculum design will be implemented in a community clinic in
Dallas, TX to examine feasibility and patient outcomes. | |
