Brief Summary
The goal of this project is to see if an electronic health record (EHR)-based smart order set with continuous glucose monitoring data to provide decision support can improve blood sugar management in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using insulin.

- STUDY PROTOCOL
Local: Investigators work closely with the clinical and administrative leaders at HealthPartners Medical Group and Park Nicollet Clinic and also primary care clinicians, adult endocrinologists, nephrologists and the diabetes education team, to ensure that the results of this study will be shared. Regional: Investigators and the research team are influential regional and national opinion leaders in caring for people with diabetes, with the ability to ensure statewide availability and dissemination of results. In addition, findings of this research will be presented at regional conferences. Consistent with ADA policy, the study team will share data generated by the study. Study data will be archived in an approved, secure an open data repository such as the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) Central Repository (NIDDK-CR). Data will be shared by 6-months after the first publication date or 18-months after the award end date, whichever comes first.
