Program Forms Package
Saves Your Business
Time and Money!
Using the correct forms to capture all the required data elements on your participants is a critical part of any diabetes education program. The time investment in developing these forms, pilot-testing them, and making revisions is significant, and can negatively impact your staff’s productivity.
Using the Diabetes Self-Management Program Forms Package developed and tested by Alamo Diabetes Team, LLP can save your new business considerable start-up time and staff resources. Our copyrighted forms include all the data fields needed to comply with the documentation standards for diabetes education programs.
Under a licensing agreement, your business’s name and logo is embedded into the program forms you select. Alamo Diabetes Team, LLP then sends you a print-only CD-ROM version of the forms package, which you can use to print forms as needed at your facility.
