Abstract

Over the years, steps have been taken to 'streamline' the process when it comes to diabetic management in the Village Primary Care (VPC) practice. As more and more outcomes are monitored, it is important to both identify the shortcomings of the practice as far as diabetic management, and attempt to implement processes to ensure better outcomes. VPC is doing well in many areas (LDL/BP/BMI), but is lacking in monitoring and implementing certain areas of diabetic management: Recommending and tracking eye exams, HbA1c, Micro albumin, Foot exams.
