Diabetes Collaborative Care Model for Young Adults

We designed a diabetes collaborative care model for young adults that incorporates a mental health provider alongside a diabetes care provider during joint office visits to facilitate screening and treatment of psychosocial determinants of diabetes management. The Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Diabetes Center will be piloting this model with a multi-disciplinary team of diabetologists, nurse practitioners, diabetes nurse educators, and mental health provider. Patients scheduled to be seen in the diabetes collaborative care model will continue to follow in the diabetes collaborative care model, with follow up visits every 3-4 months. All patients will receive routine diabetes care with lab testing, medical interventions, therapies and referrals performed at the discretion of the patients' providers.

OTHER

Usual Care Model

Patients enrolled in this arm will receive routine diabetes care per usual care at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Diabetes Center, with lab testing, medical interventions, therapies and referrals performed at the discretion of the patients' providers. In the usual care model, behavioral/mental health and social work services are available on a referral basis and are not integrated into a patients' routine appointment. Screening and treatment of psychosocial determinants of diabetes management are at done at the discretion of the patients' provider. Frequency of follow up visits is at the discretion of the patients' provider.
