Improving CareThrough Shared Learning

The T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative (T1DX-QI) brings centers across the United States to learn from real-world data and improve care for people living with diabetes.

How the Collaborative Works

Centers contribute de-identified electronic health record data and participate in shared improvement initiatives. By learning from one another and measuring progress over time, centers refine practices that lead to better outcomes. 

 

The T1DX-QI connects research partners with one of the largest learning networks using standardized, evidence-based QI methods. Through shared, benchmarked clinical data and proven improvement strategies, partners can tap into real-world insight to inform development, access strategies, and implementation decisions.

Real-World Benefits

Because the work is grounded in real-world data and continuous learning, the T1DX-QI has contributed to measurable improvements in care delivery and outcomes. For example, centers have seen progress on key metrics, including:

 

  • Greater use of diabetes technologies
  • Reduced disparities between racial and ethnic groups
  • Improvements in measures related to overall care quality
