WDI partners with NHS Scotland
The Western Diabetes Institute (WDI) at Western University of Health Sciences (WesternU) is collaborating with the National Health Service Scotland (NHS Scotland) to enhance the visualization, personalization and communication of diabetes patients’ health conditions, promote self-management, and ultimately to improve health care outcomes.
WDI is working with NHS Scotland to implement a modified version of the Diabetes Cross-Disciplinary Index (DXDI) health scorecard into the award-winning Scottish Care Information-Diabetes Collaboration (SCI-DC) platform.
SCI-DC is Scotland’s national suite of information technology products, and is designed to provide a single, efficient, cost-effective, and up-to-date system that underpins the care delivered throughout NHS Scotland’s Managed Clinical Networks to the country’s more than 275,000 residents diagnosed with diabetes.
