Summary:Diabetes self-management education (DSME) and medical nutrition therapy (MNT) improve glycemic control and reduce risk of chronic comorbid disease. Document outcomes for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) completing DSME and MNT through American Diabetes Association–recognized programs. Descriptive, retrospective chart review. Four random samples of 100 records of patients with T2D completing DSME and MNT at each of four regional centers in Alabama, June 2013 to 2014, were chosen for review; after exclusions, 392 records were retained. Weight, body mass index (BMI), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoproteins (HDL), triglycerides (TG), and TG-to-HDL ratio. Mixed-model analysis of variance was used to determine differences between continuous variables. McNemar test was used to assess frequency of patients reaching glycemic targets. Paired t tests were used to determine significance of lipid parameters. Significant reductions were observed at end of program and 1 year in weight (2.67±5.54 kg, P
