Summary

The goal of this study is to find out if adding electronic medical record (EMR) prompts helps prevent people with pre-diabetes from developing diabetes. It will also look at how these prompts affect doctor and patient behaviors.

The main questions are:

Does it improve follow-up care, such as blood tests, referrals, and medication? Does the EMR prompt reduce the number of patients who progress to diabetes within six months?

Researchers will compare clinics that use EMR prompts with clinics that do not.

Participants will:

Receive usual care for pre-diabetes at their polyclinic In some clinics, doctors will see EMR prompts suggesting tests, referrals, and medication Complete surveys about their health and lifestyle at different time points

Conditions

  • Pre Diabetes
  • Diabetes (DM)

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Electronic Medical Record-Based Clinical Decision Support

A non-intrusive OurPractice Advisories (OPA) will be implemented in the Epic EMR system. The OPA will appear in the Visit Navigator and will be automatically triggered for patients with pre-diabetes. It will provide clinicians with reminders and decision-support options to complete the recommended clinical workflow for pre-diabetes management, including referrals, follow-up scheduling, HbA1c testing, and medication initiation when indicated.
