Moreover, this study seeks to better understand how applying the ADA Standards of Care in a military primary care clinic would impact clinical outcomes in patients. Case studies were selected based upon poor clinical markers at baseline and those that required application of innovative and creative strategies to improve self-management. The cases are representative of some common themes within the patient with type 2 diabetes in a military primary care clinic.
