This study will evaluate the impact of academic detailing (evidence-based provider education) with or without patient pre-visit preparation (elicitation of values and preferences) on safe insulin de-prescribing among older patients with type 2 diabetes at risk for hypoglycemia. The hypothesis is that patients who are well-prepared for their primary care visit will engage in more informed discussions with their providers regarding re-evaluation of current treatment regimens. In clinically appropriate cases, these more effective discussions will result in safe de-prescribing and fewer future episodes of hypoglycemia.
