You'll be able to set individualized treatment targets and adjust medication regimens for patients with diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and COPD.

What this track covers

This track covers the ongoing management of common chronic conditions seen in primary care, including target-setting, medication titration, and monitoring over time. It emphasizes how treatment plans shift as patients age, develop comorbidities, or fail to reach goals on initial therapy.

What you will practice

  • Setting individualized A1C, blood pressure, and LDL targets by patient risk profile
  • Sequencing and titrating medications when a patient isn't at goal
  • Deciding when to intensify therapy versus reassess adherence or diagnosis
  • Choosing appropriate monitoring intervals for labs and pulmonary function
  • Recognizing early signs of end-organ complications and triggering the right workup

Simulator scenario

A returning primary care patient with type 2 diabetes and hypertension who is above target on current therapy, requiring you to reassess the regimen and decide on next steps within a time-limited visit.

  • Selecting second-line diabetes agents by comorbidity
  • Hypertension management in patients with kidney disease
