Integrating Diabetes Self-Management Education in Your Community Health Centers

Health Services Advisory Group (HSAG) is available to assist community health centers in helping patients prevent and better control diabetes. As the Quality Improvement Organization for your state, contracted by Medicare, we have a team of licensed diabetes trainers available to conduct two-hour diabetes self-management education (DSME) classes spanning six weeks among your Medicare beneficiary patient population—all at no cost. HSAG also is available to train your staff to conduct DSME for all of your patients.
