Diabetes care can be organized into three phases: pre-visit, intra-visit, and post-visit. Opportunities exist during each phase to introduce practice changes that can help engage and support patients in their diabetes care and management. Health care teams can optimize diabetes encounters by taking a planned, continuous improvement approach to visits, which includes pre-visit preparation (by both patients and practices), intra-visit coordination (among practice team members), and post-visit follow-up (among the practice team and with patients).
