Leichter et al discuss the new model for inpatient support services of diabetic patients. Called "The Adjust Program," the services provided by staff were changed from only patient education to a mixture of patient education and discharge planning functions. The results demonstrated that effective diabetes support and education services designed in this manner would reduce lengths of stay, cost per stay, and rate of readmissions of all patients with diabetes in a general hospital.
