Surveillance. Diabetes-related data will be collected from several sources, including the Center for Public Health Statistics; the Vermont Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care Administration; Medicaid; Medicare; Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont; and the Community Health Plan, the state’s largest health maintenance organization.

Creation of a focal point for diabetes control within the state health department.
