The article presents a study aimed at determining the efficacy and feasibility of a generic chronic disease self-management program for people with type 2 diabetes. Adults with type 2 diabetes who are under the U.S. National translation study of Stanford Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) participated in the study. Results demonstrated the efficiency for lowering A1C among people with A1C above 7% and for enhancing health status for people with diabetes.
