Preventing type 2 diabetes in England
EXPECTED BENEFITS: PHE EVIDENCE REVIEW
PHE commissioned an evidence review to assess the effectiveness of ‘real-world’ DPPs:
- 36 included studies
- When compared with usual care:
– On average, 26% lower incidence of diabetes – Average 1.57kg weight loss
- More intensive interventions were more effective
- 3.24kg in those that adhered to the most NICE guidance
AN EVIDENCE BASED INTERVENTION
- The NHS DPP behavioural intervention will be underpinned by
three core goals:
- Weight loss
- Achievement of dietary recommendations
- Achievement of physical activity recommendations
- The intervention will be long term, made up of at least 13
sessions, spread across a minimum of 9 months.
- Set and achieve goals and make positive changes to their
lifestyle.
- Will be available nationally on roll-out to all adults at risk of
Type 2 diabetes with referral routes through: – Existing GP Practice registers and opportunistic case finding – NHS Health Checks – Exploring Direct Recruitment
- To be eligible participants will have a blood test indicating Non-
Diabetic Hyperglycaemia within the last 12 months (HbA1c 42- 47mmol/mol (6.0%-6.4%) FPG 5.5-6.9mmol/l)

- Impact analysis1 (IA) suggests if 390,000 people receive the
NHS DPP intervention over 5 years*
- Approximately £1.1bn of health benefits
- Up to 24,000 cases of Type 2 diabetes prevented or
delayed by Yr 6 (which is on average up to 115 per CCG)
- By year 12, the programme will become cost saving
- Local ROI estimates will be greater with zero intervention

NHS DIABETES PROGRAMME: Digital Developments
NHS DIABETES PROGRAMME
Background
- The pace of innovation in digital technologies offers new opportunities to
improve patient experience, and deliver services in a more convenient and efficient ways and reduce the burden on clinicians and service users.
- The National Diabetes Programme has initiated a digital workstream to
ensure that the programme can harness these opportunities to support its
- verall objectives.
NHS DIABETES PROGRAMME
Objectives
The objectives of the digital workstream are to achieve improvements in diabetes
- utcomes by:
- Improving the provision of information, support and education for individuals
at risk of Type 2 diabetes and those living with both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
- Identifying opportunities for digital innovations to improve self-management
and care for people living with diabetes.
- Furthering the evidence base for innovative approaches to establish the
investment case for adoption in the formal health care sector in England.
- Identifying appropriate routes to market and commissioning arrangements
for proven innovations in this field to support adoption at scale.
NHS DIABETES PROGRAMME
Current Focus
NHS DIABETES PROGRAMME
Type 2 Prevention – Aims and Objectives
- Establish real world evidence of effectiveness of digital interventions
- What potential effect do these DBCI’s have on health inequalities?
- Can any conclusions be drawn about which groups would most benefit
from the introduction of DBCI’s?
- What are the potential costs of implementation and delivery of digital
interventions?
- What lessons can be learnt (positive and negative) about how the
interventions have been implemented?

Diabetes Treatment & Care Programme
Jeff Featherstone, Diabetes Treatment & Care Programme Manager
Treatment & Care transformation programme
1. Improving uptake of structured education £10m 2. Improving achievement of the NICE recommended treatment targets (HbA1c, cholesterol and blood pressure) and reducing variation £17m 3. Reducing amputations by increasing availability of multidisciplinary footcare teams £8m 4. Reducing lengths of stay for inpatients with diabetes by increasing availability of diabetes inpatient specialist nurses £8m
- Good evidence to suggest that these priorities will:
Have the most clinical impact Are most likely to offer the highest return on investment and be sustainable Will lead to improved outcomes for patients
Best Possible Value (BPV)
- Details subject to final confirmation before publication
- Bidding process focused on which identifying bids offer Best Possible Value
in terms of Strategic Fit, Value and Risk.
- Bids should be jointly agreed between CCGs and relevant providers with
single Senior Responsible Officer
- Application form asks for details of:
- Analysis of reasons for local position and actions proposed, with timescales
- Planned improved outcomes and expected savings
- Mutual commitment to reinvest savings in sustainable services.
Structured education (1)
- Delivery of SE for patients with type 1 diabetes could deliver savings
from reduced complications of :
- an estimated £440 average per person after 5 years and
£1,800 after 10 years for newly diagnosed patients
- an estimated £880 average per person after 5 years and
£3,600 after 10 years for the prevalent population
- Delivery of SE for patients with type 2 diabetes could deliver savings
- f
- an estimated £93 average per person after 5 years and
£129 after 10 years for the prevalent population
- an estimated £77 average per person after 5 years and
£118 after 10 years for newly diagnosed patients
Structured education (2)
- Understand actual level of attendance at structured education courses-
may well be higher than reported attendance levels. (5.7% reported
- nationally. Actual levels may be between 15-30%
- Understand why actual structured education attendance is low and
agreeing actions to tackle it. Consider:
- How clinicians explain structured education to patients
- Are providers incentivised to maximise attendance?
- Are attendance issues different for differing populations?
- Do the time and locations of offer meet patient needs
- Do content and cost reflect evidence?
Treatment targets (1)
- Treatment target achievement associated with reduced risk of
complications
- Great deal of variation in achievement:
i) > 1 in 2 patients achieving the targets in some CCGs, <1 in 3 in
- thers.
ii) 40% of type 2 patients achieving targets, but only 20% of type 1.
- Estimated per patient saving (gross):
- i. After 5 years, average per patient saving would be £270 due
to reduced risk of complications
- ii. After 10 years, average per patient saving would be £600 due
to reduced risk of complications
Treatment targets (2)
- Understand reasons for local underachievement of treatment targets
- Is underachievement focussed within specific GP practices,
populations, localities?
- Appropriate achievement of the treatment targets will vary between
different parts of local populations e.g. high elderly population, South Asian population etc.
- What are positions of comparator CCGs? If in better position, what do
they consider to be reasons for this?
- Actions that have a clear rationale for why they are considered ones to
bring about improvement and are sustainable.
Footcare and Inpatient teams
- Estimated 57 hospital sties do not have a multidisciplinary footcare team and
54 sites do not have diabetes inpatient specialist nurses. Others have teams but with insufficient capacity for current demand.
- Evidence suggests that, for every £5m invested in Multi-disciplinary
Footcare Teams (MDFTs) or Diabetes Inpatient Specialist Nurses (DISNs), net savings of around £9m annually can be achieved.
- Bids for funding for footcare and inpatient teams for sites without these in
place, and expansion of capacity in existing services.
- Need to set out how teams will support other professionals also treating the
same patients to promote consistency of care and improved outcomes.

What to avoid when developing bids
- Not including all key partners – ensure you work in an appropriate group of
CCGs and providers
- Failure to ensure that the proposals address all key issues in the appraisal
dashboard
- Submitting many separate bids – an individual CCG may be part of different
partnerships covering differing priorities or providers, but should not submit multiple bids for the same priorities and providers
- Vague responses – if you don’t have the evidence to back up your
proposals set out how you plan to get it and your best estimate
- Not demonstrating an understanding of the key issues for different parts of
the local population that affect outcomes
- Failure to demonstrate mutual commitment to the proposals across
commissioners and providers
- Failure to confirm mutual support for the cost and savings profiles and for
reinvestment of savings to sustain the improvements

Local success stories
Sutton One of the larger practices sent out 300 letters to patients identified as at risk of developing type 2 diabetes and invited them to attend an open day where they:
- Had their BMI done
- Attended an short information
session where they could ask questions
- Filled out referral forms
- Had their blood tests
As a result, 96 people were referred that month. Southwark Southwark took the approach of sending out mailshots to their at-risk population.
- Patients received a primer text
message alerting them to an important health message being sent by the practice
- Followed up with a letter informing
them that they have been identified as at-risk of developing type 2 diabetes- Trial After the first batch of texts and letters, over 150 people had called the provider, and over 50 had booked
- nto an individual assessment.
NATIONAL DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAMME
Local success stories
Greenwich Using the existing local model of Patient Information Clinics, Greenwich are running their own individual assessments for their local population.
- Eligible patients are contacted and
invited to a clinic
- At the clinic, they have a blood
check and find out more about services for preventing diabetes Greenwich have found that this model leads to higher quality referrals and patients are more motivated to attend the programme.
Lewisham Lewisham identified a GP champion who engaged a number of practices to encourage them to send out mailshots inviting eligible patients. Here the delivery team trialed two different types of mailshot.
- The standard mailshot
- A mailshot including specific
demographic information and a follow up text message The more specifically targeted mailshot leads to higher levels of engagement and an increase in referrals.
NATIONAL DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAMME
Next steps
- Continue with successful implementation delivery
mechanisms and use learning to improve patient experience
- Explore place-based outcomes for each CCG area using data
collected by the national team and the provider
- Ensure sustainability of referrals
- Work closely with the provider to start embedding
programmes as business-as-usual

- Mobilisation phase (Do not under-estimate the time required ! )
- Developing relationship with the provider (included personnel changes)
- Fully understanding the product being promoted
- Partnership working
- Engaging general practice teams
- Developing and embedding an efficient system of referral
- Competing priorities
- 1○ Care Access, CQC, extended services, capacity , organisational
changes , religious/holidays times
- Projected referrals
- Not an exact science: attrition along each step of the referral
- Integration with existing services
- Assimilation with other similar commissioned community based
services including – exercise on referral / fit for life / community prescription / health trainers / pre-diabetes sessions
- Electronic referral process
- Embedded into1○ Care practice systems, search , filtering for exclusion
criteria at the initial call/re-call system-takes time, dashboard for monitoring purposes, refining !
Lessons learned to date
- Clear and consistent communication to all within the practices
Cluster/network meetings, 1:1 practice support / TH developed a pack administration staff Robust materials for clinicians with evidence based references for the NDPP Local stakeholder implementation meetings (borough level) often required
- Organising incentives to generate referrals
Recognising additional administration cost to be met at a practice level Ensuring it will be on the general practices agenda as many competing priorities Guaranteeing a level of referral
- Requires active engagement to follow up and motivate practice referrals
Having dedicated resources to encourage low referring practices /networks to improve Organising a robust practice dashboard to regularly monitor the referrals being made
IT guidance and 1:1 support to ensure GP practices know how to use the referral
template
- Regular engagement with the Provider
To support the promotion of the NDPP – using materials such as a brief video clip To fully understand and keep up to date on the referral – initial assessment - group attendance and numbers of exceptions
- Utilise a local clinical champion - “Call to action”

Application questions
Diabetes Inpatient Specialist Nurse (DISN) Project
/ Professional Education, Facilitation support for primary care / Mentorship and Training Contracting , Finance and Value: Strategy, Governance and Accountability Outcomes, DISN:
Evidence shows thatDSNs are cost effective, improve clinical
- utcomes, and reduce
LOS in hospitals DSNs play a key role in supporting people to self manage their condition with 92% responsible for delivering self management education to people with diabetes DSN workload has increased considerably in terms of patient numbers and complexity
What is the need?
Map the number of DSN & DISN posts across London. Identify areas where there is no DISN / limited DISN
- input. Link role to outputs.
Draw together different partners, from commissioners to clinical network, from trusts to academic providers to voluntary sector.
What will the project do?
- Additional DISNs, additional diabetes patients seen, reduction in LOS,
improvement in patient experience, reduction in medication errors, reduction in hyperglycaemic / hypoglycaemic episodes, cost savings,
One in six patients
- ccupying a hospital
bed has diabetes
- Large scale evaluation of the DISN role
across multiple trusts by a academic provider recognised for workforce modelling research
- Increase DISN posts in trusts that do not
have any (NaDIA data)
- Improved patient experience
- Finical savings from reduced LOS
- Financial savings from fewer inpatient
harms
- Health benefits / QALYs
- Reduction in inpatient harms including
reduced medication errors and hypoglycaemic events
- Reduced time requirement of diabetes
patient s on other clinical staff due to being treated and managed by DISN
- Reduction in length of stay for patients
with diabetes
- Development of commissioning business
case for DISN post
Outcomes: What will the project deliver?
Support a large scale regional pilot/ evaluation
- f the DISN role (form &
function) across large and smaller London providers – the first of is kind. Develop a business case / economic modelling for commissioners on role and value of DISN post
Regional approach
Multi-partner DISN application could involve the following sites
- Chelsea and Westminster Hospital
- Epsom and St Helier hospitals
- Queen Elizabeth Hospital
- St George’s Hospital
- University College Hospital
- West Middlesex University Hospital
- The bid would be supported by an academic partner with
experience in specialist nurse evaluation.
- The bid would require a lead provider / lead CCGs to support
funding / governance arrangements.
- The trusts above did not identify a DISN post (NaDIA).
- Trusts / CCGs to approve (or not).
Local bids
- Bids will be expected from individual CCGs or CCG
- collaborations. These could, for example, be across
provider footprints or STP footprints.
- Bids should be developed in partnership with
providers, regardless if they are from individual or multiple CCGs.
- Bids from multiple CCGs should set out the planned
levels of improvement at CCG level and, where appropriate, at general practice level.
- Bids may be made with academic provider (or not).
Areas for discussion
- Identification of funding is only part of the solution
- Do we have the appropriate qualified workforce
ready to take on the role of a DISN?
- If not, should we train up / mentor / buddy / other?
- Do any models currently exist that we can implement
(London / England / elsewhere)?
- How do we recruit within London?
- How do we avoid pilot trusts recruiting from other
trusts?
- Can we learn from other CNS groups (cancer /
specialist palliative care / neurosciences)?
