Get in on the Action!
Learn how you can be involved in the development of an action plan to help identify gaps that may exist which prevent people with diabetes from being regularly screened for kidney and eye disease. Jessica Covington, KHA Quality Program Pharmacist joins Natalie Middaugh, the President and CEO at the Kentuckiana Health Collaborative (KHC), a nonprofit organization whose mission is to build healthier communities through high quality, affordable, and equitable healthcare. In this role, Natalie leads efforts to engage, align, and mobilize healthcare stakeholders to drive improvements in health and healthcare delivery. Natalie champions a collaborative, systems-thinking approach to building the health and healthcare systems we all deserve. KHC is seeking your input on assessing proper screening of diabetes-related complications such as nephropathy and retinopathy. KHC ad Kentucky Department of Public Health (KDPH) have partnered together to develop an action plan to increase screening rates for kidney and eye disease among people with diabetes.
How can you help? Please watch the webisode to learn more plus click on the survey link to assess screening practices for diabetes-related kidney and eye disease. The survey will inform the development of that action plan by assessing current practices in diabetes related kidney and eye screening plus address barriers that may exist to prevent people with diabetes from being regularly screened for kidney and eye disease. I hope you enjoy the webisode, and I look forward to continuing a successful year of addressing all things diabetes with you.
