Northern Michigan Diabetes Initiative.wmv

The Northern Michigan Diabetes Initiative (NMDI) began in 2006 as a collaborative effort between Munson Healthcare, Priority Health, Northern Michigan's Diabetes Outreach Network (TIPDON) and stakeholders from the identified Munson Healthcare geographic service area that includes eleven counties (Antrim, Otsego, Crawford, Kalkaska, Grand Traverse, Benzie, Leelanau, Manistee, Wexford, Missaukee and Roscommon). The Steering Committee consists of representatives from Munson Medical Center, Priority Health, local physicians, diabetes educators, county health departments and other health and human service representatives.

Our Mission
The Northern Michigan Diabetes Initiative is a regional collaboration dedicated to prevention, early detection, and management of diabetes.

Our Vision/Goal
A reduction in the prevalence of diabetes and improvement in the care of people with diabetes. We will accomplish this by engaging and providing local, regional, and national resources to develop and implement an improvement plan for the prevention and management of diabetes.
