Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) established the CDC Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program (DPRP) (www.cdc.gov/diabetes/prevention/recognition) as part of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (www.cdc.gov/diabetes/prevention). The DPRP provides information to people at high risk of type 2 diabetes, their health care providers, and health payers on the location and performance of local type 2 diabetes prevention programs. The purpose of DPRP is to recognize organizations that have demonstrated their ability to effectively deliver a proven type 2 diabetes prevention lifestyle intervention. The recognition program helps to assure that decisions about individual participation, patient referral, and health insurance benefits are based on accurate, reliable, and trustworthy information.
This document—CDC Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program Standards and Operating Procedures (or DPRP Standards, for short)—describes in detail the DPRP standards for type 2 diabetes prevention lifestyle interventions and explains how an organization may apply for, earn, and maintain recognition.
