Type 2 Diabetes Case Study
The implementation of Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH)model in all qualified community health center across the country with the relationship of type 2 diabetes. Which means this model will be use as source of providing primary care to all patients. Some of the questions that need to considered are:
(1) will the model (PCMH) of patient centeredness help patients;
(2) will the model improve health outcome; and
(3) what is the difference between the model and the current treatment of type 2 diabetes.
The concept of PCMH implementation will increase effectiveness of communication between healthcare practitioners with patients with type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is a problem with your body that causes blood glucose (sugar) levels to rise higher than normal. Type 2 diabetes is a complex, chronic illness requiring continuous medical care reaching far beyond controlling blood sugar (Cefalu, 2014). Maryland diabetes statistics and death rates:

Diabetes prevalence has been rising more rapidly in middle- and low-income countries. Hence treatment of Type 2 Diabetes requires continuous support from medical attention and self- management to prevent and reduce the complication of diabetes. The goals for type 2 treatment is between patient-provider communication and patient self-management skills. Management of Type 2 Diabetes can be achieved with the principles of PCMH and standard of care. Patient-centered care, self-management, patient empowerment, and team-based care are very importance in treatment and managing of type 2 diabetes. Which has come along way to yield a better health outcome. Research shows that Implementation and adoption of PCMH in all healthcare organization will help to reduced medical costs for diabetic patients such as by 21% in year 1. There will be a reduction in inpatient services cost, emergency visits, specialist visits, in subsequent
