Social Vulnerability and National Diabetes Prevention Program Recognition Status

Introduction: The CDC National Diabetes Prevention Program (National DPP) aims to reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes in the U.S. Organizations delivering the National DPP receive pending, preliminary, full, or full-plus recognition status based on specific program criteria and outcomes. Achieving full/full-plus recognition is critical for organizations to sustain the program and receive reimbursements to cover costs, but organizations in disadvantaged areas may face barriers to obtaining this level of recognition. This study examined the association between county-level social vulnerability and full/full-plus recognition status within the National DPP.

Methods: Using the 2022 National DPP registry and the 2018 CDC Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), a three-level categorical dependent variable was created (n=843): counties without organizations having full/full-plus recognition, counties with at least one organization not having full/full-plus recog nition, and counties with all organizations having full/full-plus recognition. A multinomial logit model was analyzed in 2023 to examine the association between SVI and in-person full/full-plus recognition organizations at the county level, adjusting for confounders.

Results: Compared to counties with low social vulnerability, counties with higher social vulnerability had significantly higher odds of having no organizations with full/full-plus recognition. For example, counties with high SVI had 2.63 (95% CI: 1.55–4.47) times higher odds of having no organizations with full/full-plus recognition compared to having all organizations with full/full-plus CDC recognition. Conclusions: The findings suggest disparities in the National DPP recognition status among organizations in vulnerable communities. Developing strategies to ensure organizations in high social vulnerability areas achieve at least full recognition status is critical for program sustainability a nd reducing diabetes-related health disparities. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
