APA WF# 21-04 Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) Services
These rule changes were previously approved by the OHCA Board of Directors and the Governor and are currently in effect as emergency rules. Due to Oklahoma Statutes, these rules must be taken through the permanent rulemaking process.
The proposed revisions will clarify DSMES provider requirements for registered dieticians, registered nurses, and pharmacists. Revisions will also add other health care providers with certifications as Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) or as Board-Certified Advanced Diabetes Management (BC-ADM) as eligible DSMES providers.
