Diabetes Management Plan

The Diabetes Management Plan or Diabetes Summary Form group together all the likely entries needed for managing a diabetic patient. The entries are more detailed on the Diabetes Management Plan which is system-distributed guideline, some parts of which are displayed in grid format, a column for each consultation.

The Diabetes Management Plan has been written with the new GMS Contract in mind.

Display the Diabetes Management Plan from the navigation pane of the Patient Record, by a right mouse click on the Diabetes line and select ManagementPlan. Selecting Data Grid has a list of data entries (with the addition of Diabetic Retinopathy Screening and Insulin dosage comment) but not with the same detail as the Management Plan, or Therapy lines.

Note - The Asthma (and Diabetes) Management Plans are distributed by Cegedim Healthcare Solutions. We strongly advise that if you want to make any alterations to either of these Management Plans, you should make a copy in Select Guidelines and use your copy version. Where users had previously amended the distributed guidelines causes problems when an update is distributed via a DLM and overwrites a practice's version. For this reason the distributed guidelines are protected.

Selecting the Diabetic Management Plan displays the guideline with embedded grid format sections for Review and Investigations.

Click on each of the blue sub-heading lines to collapse the guideline to its unexpanded format: History, Review, Investigations and Treatment (Current and New). Clicking on any of these lines (red) also expands or collapses the text beneath them.

New Data Entry - To enter data, first expand the section you want by clicking on the blue sub-heading line, or Expand All . Then click in the far right column headed + on the row to which you want to add data.
