As the go-to healthcare professional for diabetes management, diabetes educators are perfectly positioned to implement and manage value-based population health initiatives, which can improve outcomes while providing high-quality, efficient and cost-effective care. As healthcare continues to shift away from fee-for-service towards a value-based model, it’s imperative that diabetes educators understand how to integrate and manage these types of programs within their health system or practice. AADE's population health practice (available at www.DiabetesEducator.org/PopulationHealth) paper provides guidance on how diabetes educators can position themselves as diabetes care specialists for management, education and care delivery. AADE’s Perspectives in Practice contains information that benefits your systems, providers and the populations they serve.
