Population Health Management for Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) Members With Newly Diagnosed Diabetes: A Randomized Trial of a Proactive and Augmented Initial Care Strategy

This study is a 2-arm randomized trial of Augmented Initial Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) Care vs. Usual Initial T2D Care among adults (18-74 years) with newly diagnosed T2D who have risk factors (defined by age and diagnosis HbA1c value) for suboptimal early glycemic control. Augmented Initial T2D Care comprises the elements of usual care augmented by more proactive and intensive outreach from the diabetes care team. The study team will use electronic health record (EHR) data to assess between-arm differences in diabetes-related outcomes at 6- and 12 months.
