### Main Outcomes from the 'Designing for Experience' Workshop at the DiabetesMine Innovation Summit At the latest DiabetesMine Innovation Summit, a workshop titled 'Designing for Experience' was conducted to address the daily challenges faced by people with diabetes. Here are the three main calls to action that emerged from the workshop: 1. **Planning for Travel Without Stress** - **Challenge:** Traveling can be stressful for people with diabetes due to the need to prepare for various potential health emergencies. - **Solution Idea:** A digital app called 'Type 1 Travel Outfitters' that helps users plan their trips by providing a customized checklist of medical supplies and other necessities. The app can also offer travel kits tailored to specific destinations. 2. **Reframing the Relationship with Your Endocrinologist** - **Challenge:** Doctor's appointments can be stressful and make patients feel judged based on their health data. - **Solution Idea:** Empathy training for endocrinologists to help them build patient-centered relationships. This training would focus on understanding patient goals, barriers, and successes, and fostering a supportive environment. 3. **Better Ways to Deal with Insurance** - **Challenge:** Navigating insurance for diabetes-related devices and supplies is often complicated and frustrating. - **Solution Idea:** An 'Insurance Navigator' service that pairs patients with a dedicated contact to help them understand their coverage, access discounts, and test devices before purchasing. These calls to action aim to inspire the healthcare industry to develop real-life solutions that make living with diabetes easier.
