This research study is a virtual intervention designed to decrease diabetes distress in adults 30 years and older with type 1 diabetes. We will enroll participants into a virtual intervention with two arms, both of which are evidence-based interventions to decrease distress. Diabetes distress is important to address because it affects well-being and diabetes management. It is very common, with about 40% of people with diabetes having some level of distress. It responds well to treatment and we are studying the best way to decrease distress in our study population.

Hand osteoarthritis is a common cause of hand pain and often does not require referral to rheumatology. With the anticipated workforce shortage of rheumatologists, referral trends to rheumatology for osteoarthritis need to be further evaluated. We will be conducting online surveys with UNC healthcare providers to gauge their understanding and comfort in diagnosing and managing patients with hand osteoarthritis. This will include short hand osteoarthritis video recordings covering various aspects including diagnosis, differential diagnosis, management, prognosis and appropriate referral procedures to rheumatology. This data will provide us information about comfort level in diagnosis, management and understand referral patterns from primary care providers.
