Study Details

The investigators overarching goal is to increase the percentage of patients engaging in diabetes prevention activities to reduce the incidence of diabetes. The investigators objective is to design and pilot test a prediabetes clinical decision support (CDS) tool in the electronic health record (EHR) that will assess the patient's activation level based on responses to a questionnaire. Based on the patient's assessed level of activation, the tool will generate several communication recommendations to guide clinicians in conversations related to prediabetes/lifestyle change and tailor recommendations about available resources (e.g., care manager, health coach, DPP) to support patient activation.

  • No Intervention: Control Arm (Usual Care)
    Patients in the control arm will follow the same visit schedule as the intervention arm. At the beginning of the study, participants will receive a handout on pre-diabetes which will include information on lifestyle changes and the benefits of joining a Diabetes Prevention Program. Before each visit, participants will complete a patient activation survey but the results will not be shared with the participants primary care doctor
