AADE and the Academy for Nutrition and Dietetics have developed materials designed to provide information and assist physicians and other qualified non-physician practitioners in making referrals for diabetes education services to improve access and education to individuals with diabetes.

These materials include:

• Diabetes Services Order Form (PDF), designed to make it easy for physicians to refer for DSMT and MNT in one quick step, and
• Background Information on the Diabetes Services Order Form (PDF), which provides a summary of DSMT and MNT benefit requirements, as well as examples of how they can be coordinated for qualifying Medicare beneficiaries.
