Summary

Individuals with prediabetes are at increased risk for developing diabetes. Higher hemoglobin A1c's (6.1-6.4%) are associated with a high risk of developing diabetes. It is known that programs such weight management classes and one-on-one counseling with registered dieticians can lead to weight loss and decrease the risk of diabetes. However, engagement of Kaiser Permanente Colorado members in these activities is low.
