Raising Referrals While Lowering Risk: Understanding and Referring to the National Diabetes Prevention Program in Idaho
The National Diabetes Prevention Program is an evidenced based program that is proven to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes. Engaging health care providers in talking to persons with prediabetes about their risk and referring them to the National DPP evidence-based program is proven to increase access to and participation in these programs.
In this learning event, participants will learn about the National DPP program, about DPP programs in Idaho and the important role of health care providers in supporting and referring to these programs.
Through panel discussion of National DPP providers in Idaho and health care providers, the success of the program will be discussed as well as critical opportunities for collaboration between the health care team and these community evidence-based programs.
For more information on the National Diabetes Prevention Program and guidance on starting a program in your community, please contact Dorothy Plaza at info@diabetesallianceofidaho.org.
