SCRANTON, PA — The Wright Center for Community Health and Graduate Medical Education has earned national recognition for its work in improving diabetes care and prevention. 

Quality Insights, a West Virginia-based quality improvement group, noted the center for its annual review of diabetes and prediabetes care, as well as its launch of the National Diabetes Prevention Program to support individuals at risk. 

The program focuses on evidence-based lifestyle changes to prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in high-risk patients.

The Wright Center partnered with Quality Insights to assess workflows, documentation and referrals, driving ongoing improvements in care and cost efficiency. Quality Insights also noted that the center achieved stronger glycemic control among its diabetic patients, which helps reduce the risk of serious complications.
