Problem: In Midwest, suburban primary care clinics within large health systems, there was a lack of time for thorough diabetes education with a primary care provider (PCP), a lack of educational resources that took advantage of current patient wait times in primary care settings, and a lack of attendance at affiliated diabetes self-management education (DSME) courses offered outside of the clinics. Aims: The aims of this project were to increase accessibility to diabetes education resources, develop cost-effective, evidence-based, and professionally-vetted video-based diabetes education for use within the primary care setting, and to measure PCP satisfaction with the patient education modality. Method: The strategy for this project was a quality improvement (QI) design to develop and professionally vet video-based diabetes education for integration in Midwest, suburban primary care clinics within large health systems. Eight educational scripts were developed using reputable sources and Adult Learning Theory (ALT). The scripts were converted into video format for display on primary care waiting room televisions. The videos were vetted by PCPs and diabetes educators (DEs). Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate the findings. Results: A total of eight PCPs (n=8) and six DEs (n=6) participated in vetting the developed video-based diabetes education. All PCPs agreed the videos would increase access to diabetes education in their clinic setting. The videos were cost-effective with a production cost of $159.99. All PCPs and DEs expressed the developed videos were evidence-based. PCP satisfaction with the video content had a mean score of 4.88 out of 5. Minor video revisions were suggested. Descriptive data also informed additional topics including comprehensive diabetes education topics, decreasing provider distress, utilizing patient wait times, and additional settings for video education implementation.
