Development of a web-based registry to support diabetes care in free medical clinics
2016
Abstract
There are more than 1000 “Free Clinics” in the United States that serve uninsured and underserved patients. The majority treat chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and its co-morbidities. Because free clinics are not eligible for federal reimbursement for electronic health record use, very few are able to track and manage chronic diseases electronically. Historically, clinicians have tracked metabolic and other matrices with paper forms and spreadsheets. Electronic disease registries are tools that support chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension. We present the results of our web-based registry to support diabetes care in free medical clinics.
