Unprecedented region-wide initiative takes on diabetes.
Western Pennsylvania gets serious about diabetes with unprecedented effort. It's called the PRIDE initiative, and it has assembled an impressive array of resources to equip primary care practices in the region with the tracking tools they need to bring diabetes care in line with the chronic care model. It's a tall order, and the initiative has just begun, but developers are determined to translate their research into measurable results.
