Are health information management and health care management the same?

Best Practices in Diabetes Prevention and Care Management

• I am seeking information on best practices in (a) prevention of diabetes among adults, (b) coordinating and improving health care to ensure diabetic patients receive appropriate care and avoid costly hospitalizations and disability, and (c) patient education / training for diabetic patients. Primarily interested in programs, initiatives, etc. developed by health plans (HMOs, PPOs) and/or employers to improve the management of diabetes and reduce the medical costs and other consequences of adult diabetes. Reports, case studies, briefings, PowerPoint presentations. Emphasis on web links that provide information in PDF or PPT format.
