Specialist Conferences Between General Practitioners and Endocrinologists

"The intervention consists of four virtual conferences (45 min each in month 2, 5, 8 and 11) and an introductory webinar (90 min in month 1) to learn GPs about how to use the electronic Diabetes Overview to identify and manage patients with T2D. Each general practice is assigned to one specific endocrinologist they meet with throughout. The four virtual conferences are thematic: T2D and cardiovascular disease and heart failure, T2D and lipids, T2D and kidney disease and blood pressure, and T2D and a free topic selected by the GP. At each conference, the GP must bring 2-3 patient cases related to the theme and 1-2 patients of their own choice. The GP chairs the meeting. Each conference follows the same format: Check in (5 min); Short presentation by the endocrinologist (10 min); Presentation by GP and joint dialogue about theme-related patients (20 min); Presentation by GP and joint dialogue about theme-unrelated patients (optional, 5 min); (5) Wrapping-up (5 min)."
