Improving Diabetes Management Screening Adherence in a Free Clinic

Uninsured people with diabetes are at-risk for inconsistent disease management and complications that are identifiable through disease management screenings.

This nurse practitioner-led quality improvement project aimed to increase the percentage of free clinic patients with diabetes who were up-to-date with disease management screenings by implementing a paper POC tool and workflow.
