Most care management modalities were carved out from primary care .
Conclusions Most care management programs for patients with type 2 diabetes are ' carved-out ' , accomplish limited effects on metabolic outcomes , and have unknown effects on patient important outcomes .
Background This systematic review and meta- analysis aims at assessing the composition and performance of care management models evaluated in the last decade and their impact on patient important outcomes .
Group visits in medically and economically disadvantaged patients with type 2 diabetes and their relationships to clinical outcomes.
To evaluate group visits in the management of underinsured patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes , 120 eligible patients enrolled were r and omly assigned to receive care in groups or continue usual care .  Feasibility , acceptability , and concordance with American Diabetes Association st and ards of care ( Diab Camre . 25[suppl 1]:533 - 549 ) were evaluated . Patients who received care in groups exhibited improvement in American Diabetes Association st and ards of care ( p < .001 ) , improved sense of trust in physician ( p = .02 ) , and tended to report better coordination of care ( p = .07 ) , better community orientation ( p = .09 ) , and more culturally competent care ( p = .09 ) . Group visits offer a promising model for delivering health care to these patients
