Summary

The investigators seek to apply a shared medical visit model and interdisciplinary approach to Spanish-speaking patients. The investigators will evaluate the patient's hemoglobin A1c as a marker of glycemic control and evaluate their mood with PHQ screening tools. The investigators seek to improve diabetes care for this group of underserved patients. Potential participants will be selected from the UNMC diabetes registry. Eligibility criteria includes adult patients over the age of eighteen years old with Type 2 diabetes, HgbA1c greater than 8%, whose preferred language is Spanish. Exclusion criteria include pregnancy, residency at a nursing home or other facility, substance abuse, and physician recommendation that study is not appropriate for the patient.

  • Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Shared Medical Visit

The Shared Medical Visits are a replacement for standard diabetic visits with PCP, and will occur completely in Spanish, the patients' preferred primary language. An interdisciplinary group including behavioral health, social work, pharmacy, MD, and diabetic educator will be involved in the visit. The focal point of the meeting is a 30 minute session in which all members are seated around a large table in the Midtown SMV area and each patient's blood sugars, labs, and medications are discussed in front of the entire group. Pertinent labs and vaccines are drawn/administered.
