Continuous glucose monitoring among adults with type 2 diabetes receiving noninsulin or basal insulin therapy in primary care.

Rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) continue to rise in the United States, with many patients failing to achieve glycemic targets. Primary care providers often serve as the sole clinician managing diabetes. Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) have shown promise in diabetes management, yet their adoption in primary care settings, especially among patients with T2D not using intensive insulin therapy, remains limited.

Development of a Follow-Up Measure to Ensure Complete Screening for Colorectal Cancer.

Importance: The current quality performance measure for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is limited to initial screening. Despite low rates, there is no measure for appropriate follow-up with colonoscopy after receipt of an abnormal result of a stool-based screening test (SBT) for CRC. A quality performance measure is needed.

Perspectives on Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease: A Qualitative Study of Early Diagnosis and Treatment and the Impact of Health Disparities.

Lower-extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD), the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaque in the arteries of the legs, causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Frequent under- and delayed diagnosis result in poor outcomes, disproportionately affecting individuals from racial and ethnic minority groups. To understand barriers to early detection and treatment and factors contributing to disparities, American Medical Group Association (AMGA) conducted roundtable discussions and semistructured interviews in 2021.
