We’re talking about the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program or MDPP, an expanded model of the National Diabetes Prevention Program that includes an evidence-based set of services to help prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes among Medicare beneficiaries with prediabetes. We’ve invited Certified Diabetes Educator and Registered Dietitian Linda Schoon to share her experience as an early provider of the MDPP at a health system in Northern Colorado. After hearing about her journey, you’ll walk away with a better idea of how to create a strong foundation to become an MDPP supplier, key staff and collaborators that will help your application, as well as the many benefits you and your clients can expect.
