Prediabetes: A Healthcare Provider's Toolkit for Action
It is estimated that 9 out of 10 people with prediabetes don’t know they have it. The sooner your patients find out they have prediabetes and take action, the better their chances of preventing type 2 diabetes. Help us to ensure that the New Yorkers with prediabetes take action to prevent it from progressing to type 2 diabetes.
This site provides information for healthcare providers to use to:
1. Diagnose patients with prediabetes and start the conversation about type 2 diabetes prevention.
2. Provide guideline-concordant care.
3. Refer to diabetes prevention programs and encourage participation.
