Module 7: Optimize the Diabetes Patient Journey: A Case-Based Approach for Busting Inertia

Note: Participants have until December 31, 2022 to complete this module.

Therapeutic inertia is responsible for substantial, preventable complications in type 2 diabetes with associated excess in direct and indirect health care costs. During this practical training, we will take an in-depth look at a single patient journey over more than 20 years, exploring best practice approaches to optimize diabetes care, reduce complications, and minimize therapeutic inertia.

Learning objectives:

Identify where therapeutic inertia can present itself through the patient’s journey with diabetes
Utilize an A1C-based follow-up algorithm in your practice with more confidence.
Apply the ADA standards of care to reduce therapeutic inertia in a patient with Type 2 diabetes
