Join the American Diabetes Association on Tuesday, September 13^th, at 3 p.m. EDT for a live, one-hour panel discussion about how to help patients navigate common financial and logistical barriers to diabetes care. The session is a part of the "Hands On: Tips to Improve Diabetes Care" webinar series available exclusively to ADA members and offering CE credit.

In this webinar, speakers will identify various cost- and logistics-related barriers to optimal diabetes care, discuss ways to help lower patients’ out-of-pocket costs, and talk about ways that members of the care team can help patients and primary care providers identify and pursue more affordable treatment options. Presenters will share five actionable tips for helping patients overcome these common barriers before the webinar concludes with a live Q&A session.

The “Hands On: Tips to Improve Diabetes Care” series is presented by ADA’s Behavioral Medicine & Psychology, Diabetes in Primary Care, and Diabetes Technology Interest Groups through the generous support of the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust.
