TL;DR: The lack of consensus in the delivery of intravenous insulin infusions is reflected in the wide variability of practice noted in this survey and mandates close attention to the choice of a protocol.

TL;DR: An intensive, multifaceted online DPP intervention had higher participation but similar weight loss compared to in-person DPP and may be as effective as in- person DPP to help expand reach to those at risk.

TL;DR: Cognitive impairment is associated with worse diabetes care management and the presence of a caregiver is not protective, and further research is necessary to examine the healthcare needs of cognitively impaired, diabetic patients and their caregivers.

TL;DR: Multi-faceted strategies are needed to reach targeted participants and successfully implement DPP, and costs for assessing patients for eligibility need to be carefully considered while still maximizing reach to the targeted population.

TL;DR: Findings from this pragmatic evaluation will be highly applicable to practitioners who are tasked with implementing the DPP in clinical settings and determine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the VA D PP in the Veteran population.
