Available HEALTH TiPS related to diabetes: Diabetes, Hypertension, High Cholesterol, Smoking, and the Healthy Plate
HEALTH TiPS are two sided 4x6-inch sheets that contain important information that patients need to know to manage their health.
HEALTH TiPS are developed at or below a fifth-grade reading level, in English and Spanish, and are designed specifically for the 90 million people who have difficulty understanding and acting on health information--nearly half of all American adults. The clinical content of HEALTH TiPS is evidence-based.
In addition to the HEALTH TiPS pads, the ACP Foundation has developed electronic HEALTH TiPS (e-TiPS). The evidence-based patient information on the original HEALTH TiPS has been graphically enhanced and is available in color for downloading.

From Healthcare IT News
Online diabetes management programs may lead to improved patient knowledge, engagement and accountability, as well as better communication between patient and doctor, according to a new study by the Center for Connected Health, a division of Partners HealthCare. The study is published in the March issue of the Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology.
Based on the results of the pilot study, which examined a program called Diabetes Connected Health, the Center for Connected Health has initiated a randomized clinical trial involving 200 patients from six primary care practices affiliated with either Massachusetts General Hospital or Brigham and Women's Hospital.
