ENDOCRINOLOGY CARE PATHWAYS

eConsults for Diabetes

Is your patient’s last HgbA1c >9?

For Primary Care Physicians (PCPs) treating patients with diabetes, endocrinology care pathways that include eConsults provide valuable specialist insights that enhance diabetes management without requiring patients to visit a specialist in person. This allows PCPs to access expert guidance on complex cases, refine treatment plans, and address complications such as medication adjustments, dietary concerns, and lifestyle recommendations more quickly.

eConsults also help improve patient outcomes by facilitating timely interventions and personalized care, reducing the need for referrals, and cutting healthcare costs. By integrating eConsults into diabetes care, PCPs can better support their patients and optimize chronic disease management.
