14. 2017 Performance Measures
Recruit and support participants to Pending and Recognized National DPP in distressed counties in Appalachia.
Number of persons with prediabetes or at high risk for type 2 diabetes who enroll in a CDC-recognized diabetes prevention program.
Number of people with diabetes who have at least one encounter at a DSME program during the funding year (emphasis on ADA-recognized or AADE-accredited DSME programs that meet national quality standards).
The focus next year on new reporting will be for the first two measures.
