2 II. Description of Bid Purpose The purpose of this project is to support state health agencies and their partners with the development of a statewide plan that would focus on opportunities to align current efforts, address gaps, and leverage strategic partnerships to support diabetes management and improve diabetes outcomes. This grant will support strategic planning activities with clinical, community, and public health partners to collaboratively identify opportunities for secondary and tertiary prevention efforts to reduce the burden of diabetesassociated risk factors and complications. In phase I of the project, states will conduct a statewide assessment of diabetes activities in order to identify challenges/gaps/needs, and develop a plan outlining strategies to address the identified gaps. To support these activities, states will identify strategic opportunities to expand the scope of current partnerships with payer, clinical, and community partners. States will also identify relevant performance and evaluation measures (e.g. National Quality Forum measure 59 1 and others) to help guide implementation and evaluation of statewide efforts. This grant could also help states explore the feasibility of implementing strategies outlined in the statewide plan. Depending on readiness, states could elect to work with 1-2 clinical or community settings using a quality improvement approach to test strategies. State teams may use the Deming Plan, Do, Study, Act quality improvement model to try, assess, refine, and scale up a variety of strategies and approaches towards these ends. Background Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. More than 29 million people are estimated to have diagnosed or undiagnosed diabetes, and an additional 86 million US adults have prediabetes. i Through federal funding, all 50 states and the District of Columbia receive funds to support chronic disease prevention programs, including diabetes prevention and control programs. State chronic disease or diabetes plans identify priority areas for action around prevention, identification, and control of diabetes. ASTHO has demonstrated success with the Million Hearts State Learning Collaborative using a systems framework to support states annual objectives to improve hypertension control. Using a systems change approach, states can also strengthen their strategic plans to improve diabetes control through: data-driven action, multi-sector partnerships, standardizing practice, community-clinical linkages, financing, and policy. In phase I of the project, ASTHO aims to develop key systems change recommendations specific to diabetes and partner with up to two demonstration states to pilot the recommendations. ASTHO is partnering with the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) to support this project. NACDD has significant experience in working with state health departments and their partners to implement approaches for effective chronic disease programs, diabetes-specific public health actions, and coordination and integration of diabetes with other program strategies. The NACDD Diabetes Team is 1 The percentage of members years of age with diabetes (type 1 and type 2) whose most recent HbA1c level during the measurement year was greater than 9.0% (poor control) or was missing a result, or if an HbA1c test was not done during the measurement year. 2

3 comprised of consultants who collectively have over 50 years of public health experience at the county, state, and/or national level working on diabetes and related chronic disease public health approaches. The NACDD Diabetes Team assisted CDC in launching the Diabetes Primary Prevention Planning Program (DP4) that funded state health departments to convene stakeholders to identify essential public health components for diabetes prevention and to develop state prevention plans. In addition, NACDD helped CDC coordinate the Diabetes Primary Prevention Initiative that funded five state health departments, and contractors to create a plan of action, pilot-tested surveillance, system dynamics modeling, and interventions, and, ultimately, produced recommendations for federal, state, and local public health implementation of diabetes prevention. NACDD has also supported the development of the BRFSS diabetes prevention module and collaborated with CDC to implement the State Diabetes Prevention Project (S-DPP). Project Activities ASTHO will support agencies in the development of an action plan to address current gaps in efforts to improve diabetes management and associated outcomes. Applicants will describe their proposed systems change approach and multi-sector partner engagement to support these efforts. Below is a general description of project activities: A. Statewide assessment of diabetes strategies and activities to identify challenges/gaps/needs. States may do this as part of diabetes action plan legislation mandate to publish or update a diabetes action plan. B. In-person and virtual learning sessions with key stakeholders to collaboratively develop a diabetes action plan. States will convene a wide variety of key stakeholders to review the statewide assessment and identify and prioritize policies, practices, and systems to implement and roles for stakeholders. C. Development of a diabetes action plan that clearly defines roles for key stakeholders. Systems Change: Applicants should describe how they will leverage ongoing public health and clinical initiatives to develop and/or implement strategies through existing and new statewide systems around data/health IT access and sharing, financing and reimbursement, and standardizing clinical and community practice and linkage protocols. Applicants should also describe what existing state-level initiatives are in place to support spreading and sustaining these systems. Examples include CMS State Innovation Model (SIM) initiatives, state health improvement plans, other CDC funding streams, other initiatives of partners, etc. State Team Members: Applicants should include a list of their proposed state team, as well as the proposed roles and responsibilities for each team member. The state health official will collaborate with state health agency staff to identify an agency staff member lead, and will engage several multi-sector leaders to participate as core planning team members. Additional team members will depend on the project design, available partners, and other state-specific factors. The core planning team capacity should include, at minimum: 1. State Health Agency Lead as identified by state health official, such as a Chronic Disease Director (This person will serve as ASTHO s primary contact and will be responsible for tasks such as coordinating in person sessions, reporting, participating in project lead calls, etc.) 2. A lead Deputy or Chief of Staff for the Agency (sometimes referred to as the Senior Deputy) 3

4 3. Public or private health plans 4. Regional partners (e.g. QIO, community health center network, health system, hospital service area or ACO) 5. Community Partners (e.g. YMCA State Alliance, Public Health Institute, etc) Expected Outcomes The goal of this project is to convene a wide variety of stakeholders to collaboratively identify systems change policies and practices to improve diabetes management and associated outcomes.
