Open-ended responses to questions about features considered most valuable and areas for improvement were categorized using qualitative methods with team consensus.<br>Results: Likert-scale survey responses were favorably higher than neutral for general satisfaction (92%), recommending to colleagues (92%), training adequacy (90%), navigation ease (94%), blood sugar displays (87%), drug info and help links (75%), goal progress graphs (49%), and feedback received (80%). 49% reported difficulty finding time to do cases. Out of 87 open-ended responses, the most valuable things learned were categorized as insulin management (n=35), general diabetes management (n=23), goal-setting and achievement (n=10). Areas for improvement were most often categorized as software enhancements (n=34) and nothing bad to report (n=27).<br>Conclusion: A simulated learning program was highly rated by primary care residents and almost all would recommend it to colleagues. Additional analysis to show effectiveness is needed.<p> Physicians Diabetes document-rn26984 Provider satisfaction with a simulated learning approach to diabetes management [poster] 2022-02-21T22:48:57.408-06:00
