Title: Using Peer Mentors to Support 

PACT Team Efforts to Improve Diabetes. 

OMB Control Number: 2900–NEW. 

Type of Review: New Data Collection. 

Abstract: This project is being 

conducted under the auspices of the 

VISN 4 Demonstration Lab, which was 

funded by Patient Care Services to 

assess the Patient Aligned Care Team 

(PACT) model of care for Veterans. 

There is considerable interest in and 

urgency to implement the PACT 

model—reflecting both a desire to 

improve health care for Veterans and to 

sustain the VA’s leadership in health 

care quality. This study aims to 

contribute to these goals by evaluating 

the effects of the VA PACT initiative 

and by test new, innovative strategies 

for patient care that can be spread if 

proven effective.
