Diabetes
• Costly & debilitating sequelae of poor control
– Blindness, lower limb amputation, heart disease,
renal failure
• Significant health inequalities
• DHB priority
• MoH priority and required reporting as
indicators of DHB/PHO performance
What is the problem we are trying
to address?
• How to support & enhance self-management of
diabetes to prevent/slow progression to CVD &
other sequelae
– Where are the gaps
– What are the needs of patients
– What do primary & secondary care need in order to
be able to support their patients better
– How can technology & IT – based tools help
– How can we integrate these into the system

• Linking health data for benchmarking, quality
improvement of performance
Primary Care Collaboratives
• Locality-based primary care project to improve
diabetes care across practices
• Examine practice-based data e.g. HbA1c
across the region
• Small team of clinicians identify why some
practices performing better than others
• Take those lessons/practices
• Spend time in practices helping them to
implement the identified success factors
• Try things, re-measure & review, refine,
continue
Specialist – primary support
• Provide more rapid and useful advice from
specialists to primary care teams
• Patient-specific advice that is captured as well
as more generic education
• Reduce unnecessary referrals to hospital and
travel time of patients or specialists
• Keep care in the community, continuity
• Upskill multidisciplinary teams in community
Video conferencing
• Evidence internationally to support
