Purpose: The purpose of this study is to review the literature for Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) to ensure the National Standards for DSMES (Standards) align with current evidence-based practices and utilization trends.

Methods: The 10 Standards were divided among 20 interdisciplinary workgroup members. Members searched the current research for diabetes education and support, behavioral health, clinical, health care environment, technical, reimbursement, and business practice for the strongest evidence that guided the Standards revision.

Objective/methods: Barriers to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use continue to hamper adoption of this valuable technology for the management of diabetes. The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and the American College of Endocrinology convened a public consensus conference February 20, 2016, to review available CGM data and propose strategies for expanding CGM access.

Results: Conference participants agreed that evidence supports the benefits of CGM in type 1 diabetes and that these benefits are likely to apply whenever intensive insulin therapy is used, regardless of diabetes type.

In an effort to combat ever-rising overhead costs, it is critical that one understand proper coding for continuous glucose monitoring. By understanding correct Common Procedural Terminology (CPT, American Medical Association, Chicago, IL), Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS), and International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9) coding there will be an increased reimbursement for professional services. The process of code development, the use of proper modifiers along with appropriate CPT codes, and the appeal processes have been extensively researched using many different professional associations.

Objective: This subgroup analysis of a retrospective cohort study examined, from a managed care perspective, the risk of influenza-related complications and hospitalizations in patients with diabetes who were prescribed oseltamivir for the treatment of influenza and those who were not prescribed antiviral treatment.

Methods: Health insurance claims data from the Thomson Healthcare MarketScan Research Database for 6 influenza seasons (October 1-March 31) between 2000 and 2006 were used to identify patients aged >/=18 years with influenza and diabetes. Patients who received a prescription for oseltamivir within 1 day of a diagnosis of influenza were compared with those who received no antiviral treatment.

Background: In a minority of patients, primary hyperparathyroidism spontaneously remits either by autoinfarction or by hemorrhage into or around the adenoma. We describe a case of autoparathyroidectomy occurring in a 63-year-old man 9 years after three parathyroid glands were removed during a total thyroidectomy. This case is compared with 50 previously reported cases of autoparathyriodectomy, and a meta-analysis is performed.
