Change Agent Chat Episode 29 – Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment



As part of their participation in a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment was required to report upon the proportion of adults with diabetes who filled a diabetes prescription, and took their medications as prescribed. They enlisted researchers from the University of Colorado, Denver’s Skaggs School of Pharmacy to help. During this Chat we learn what the researchers found about Coloradans living with this condition.
