Group Comparison | Difference Between Groups, IRR (P Value) | ||
---|---|---|---|
Preimplementation Slopea | Postimplementation Slopea | Change in Slopea | |
EPCD staff vs EPCD trainee | 0.996 (.44) | 0.996 (.28) | 1.000 (>.99) |
EPCD staff vs non-EPCD staff | 0.995 (.07) | 1.013 (<.001) | 1.017 (<.001) |

D5 = all 5 diabetes components (glycemic control, blood pressure control, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol control, aspirin use if indicated, and tobacco-free status); EPCD = Enhanced Primary Care Diabetes; IRR = incidence rate ratio.
↵a Slope is the monthly change in percentage of patients meeting all 5 quality indicators, represented by the incidence rate ratio.
