In 4-5 paragraphs, write your comments on the innovation practice or quality tool. While reviewing the innovations exchange site be sure to read the comments and expert commentary included in the profile and related articles cited in the profile. To help you write the memo, answer the following questions:
Based on your clinical experience and/or professional interests, why are you commenting on this particular innovation?
Have you observed or identified a need that you believe this innovation practice or quality tool can address? In your experience, is this innovation practical?
Have you seen other innovations/practices/tools used in clinical settings that are similar or dissimilar with the same results?

Here is Part one presentation copy:
Toolkit for improving diabetes care & outcome
Evidence-based strategies that was created by Wisconsin Collaborative for Healthcare Quality (WCHQ) so health care provider organizations can use it to improve diabetes control among their patients.
The toolkit also provides a variety of resources e.g., Guidelines, EHR screenshots, sample policies, templates, web links to support implementing the improvement strategies.
This toolkit is designed for administrators, clinicians, and staff within healthcare provider organizations who are seeking strategies and tools to improve diabetes control among their patients.
Recommend best practice strategies to improve diabetes care and outcomes:
A patient with a diagnosis of diabetes has a diabetes focused visit every 6 months
The reason for focused visits with patients is that the more frequently visit with their providers it helps gain faster control of a1c, bp, and ldl-levels, but no guidelines exist for provider visit frequency. In addition, the American Diabetes Association recommends that people with diabetes who are meeting treatment goals and have stable blood glucose levels have the a1c test twice a year. Providers may repeat the a1c test as often as four times a year until blood glucose levels reach recommended levels.
If a patients most recent a1c result is greater than or equal to 8, a diabetes focus visit occurs within 30 days
Prevention of cardiovascular health is equally, if not more, important to reducing mortality and morbidity in people with diabetes as blood glucose control. Investment in prevention returns economic benefits. While it is realized that blood glucose control on its own is not enough, it is a start.
Providers also have assess to diabetes care standing orders: including standing lab order, dilated retinal exam, foot exam, immunization and self management goals.
Providers have to pass competency test on insulin pump start and management in the outpatient diabetes program and simple insulin dose adjustments competency validation
