Cell Phone Assisted Self-Care Diabetes Management Program

Cell Phone Assisted Self-Care Diabetes Management Program

Provide Intensive and Lite cell phone programs for patients with diabetes.

This is an exciting 12-month cell phone based intervention program, that aims to improve self-management behaviors in patients with diabetes in an effort to reduce emergency department visits and hospitalization.
The program builds on the existing model which consists of clinic-based healthcare providers and case managers and adds a cell-phone based application to ensure blood sugar control through self-monitoring, real-time feedback, coaching and support. The phone or computer application will also provide summary reports to health providers and case mangers in order to help them make better and faster treatment decisions.
