Summary

This trial is testing a program called I-SITE to see if it can help maintain higher rates of diabetic eye screening using teleophthalmology in city health systems with multiple payers.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who are part of an urban health system and have had diabetic eye screenings. Participants' medical records must include specific ICD-10 codes for diabetes and billing data for teleophthalmology services.
What is being tested?
The study tests the I-SITE program's effectiveness in maintaining high rates of diabetic eye screening through teleophthalmology, compared to usual care, within urban health systems that cater to multiple insurance payers.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementing a service delivery method rather than a drug, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be indirect consequences related to accessibility, satisfaction or accuracy of the teleophthalmology service.
