Medical expenses for people with diabetes are more than two times higher than for those without diabetes.2 Total national health care and related costs for the treatment of all people with diabetes total ~ $245 billion.1 Complications from diabetes, such as chronic kidney disease, can cost health care organizations $33 billion per year.2 Most diabetes care is provided in the community in the primary care setting,3 and diabetes is the fourth most frequent reason for ambulatory physician visits.7 A gap exists between optimal and actual care, constituting a wide “quality chasm,”8 which underscores the need for innovative approaches to change the current practice of diabetes care.
