(CS02) Game Plan for Basal Insulin: Winning Strategies from Initiation to Adjustment

Sunday, August 9, 2026

5:15 PM - 6:45 PM ET

CE: 1.0 CE

Many patients with T2D do not meet their personalized glycemic goals despite available basal insulin options, often due to delays in intensification and gaps in implementation. This interactive game show-style educational activity will equip diabetes care and education professionals with the latest evidence and practical strategies to optimize basal insulin use, including appropriate selection, initiation, and titration. Participants will gain tools to support patient engagement, address barriers to ongoing insulin use, and collaborate effectively with the care team to improve glycemic outcomes.
There is no pre-registration for this dinner event. Seating and meals will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Doors open at 5:15 PM. The educational session will begin promptly at 5:30 PM and conclude at 6:45 PM.
