The CDS Member Support/Supply Program reinforces a healthy lifestyle and diabetes self-management through telephonic or mail health surveys, tailored education and delivery of self-management supplies every 90 days.

At CDS, we recognize that personal service improves your members' compliance by reinforcing self-management messages and providing a sense of community. CDS member support specialists assist each member with their ongoing diabetes education and support.
