Primary care practices that are part of systems of care and participating in the Pharmacy QI Learning Collaborative met again in February to share their progress and lessons learned with implementing Professional Use Continuous Glucose Monitoring in primary care.

The meeting concluded with a discussion on what practices are doing regarding chronic liver disease which is often associated with glucose intolerance and diabetes. Special thanks to UnitedHealthcare and RIDOH who are providing the funding for this important quality improvement initiative.
