Mission Statement
The Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers was created with the overarching mission "...to improve the health status of all Camden residents, by increasing the capacity, quality, and access of care in the city."
Description
The project seeks to fundamentally change how providers, office staff and community agencies in Camden care for city residents with diabetes by building an accessible, high-quality, coordinated and data-driven health care delivery system with a strong primary care base.
The Camden Citywide Diabetes Collaborative is a multipronged effort to improve diabetes care at the patient, practice and community level. It's focus:
comprehensive practice transformation in 10 local primary care offices, provider and staff education, improved linkages between endocrinology and primary care providers, community- and practice-based diabetes education, expanded data-sharing, development of citywide care protocols and targeted interventions to key sub-populations.
