What is it about?
There are numerous documented evidence of pharmacist contributions to type 2 diabetes care. However, there is a lack of structured and consistent approach. Hence, outcomes vary from significant difference to minimal difference. We used the Simpler tool to provide structured approach to diabetes care. This method improved patients' clinical and quality of life outcomes.
