Can Subsidized Transportation Options Slow Diabetes Progression?

Can Subsidized Transportation Options Slow Diabetes Progression?

View Webinar

This webinar examines low-cost ways of improving transportation opportunities for low-income urban diabetic patients, including providing public transit vouchers, a cash benefit, or mobility counseling compared with usual medical care alone.

The research team at Georgia State University will estimate the impact of these mobility enhancements on access to care, diabetes progression, healthcare utilization and costs. The research team will collaborate with Grady Health System, the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, the Atlanta Regional Commission, and the Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health Improvement to conduct the study.
