Managed Care Cast

In this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with the lead author of a study in the June issue of The American Journal of Managed Care® about the nationwide dearth of suppliers of the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program, which aims to reach older adults with prediabetes. Natalie D. Ritchie, associate research scientist in the Denver Health and Hospital Authority Office of Research and an assistant professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and College of Nursing, discussed her thoughts on why not enough suppliers are offering the program. The study ("Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program: Where Are the Suppliers?") can be found at ajmc.com/link/4659.
