Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usability of a novel patient portal intervention designed to: (a) notify patients when selected, clinically meaningful, evidence-based diabetes monitoring \& preventative care (e.g., annual diabetes eye exam) become due and (b) allow patients to initiate orders for the care. In addition, the investigators will assess pre-post change on secondary psychosocial outcomes (e.g., self-efficacy).
Detailed Description: Up to 60 adult patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus will be enrolled and given access to a new feature within the patient portal at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The new feature will be available via the patient portal native app (i.e., My Health at Vanderbilt (MHAV) app) for mobile devices (smartphone or tablet). The new feature will allow patients to: (1) receive notifications when the patient is due for certain types of diabetes monitoring and preventative care and (2) initiate an order for the care. Study participants will complete questionnaires electronically via email at three time points: baseline (T0), immediately after first use of the intervention (T1), and three-month follow-up (T2) to as assess study outcomes including usability and pre-post change in secondary psychosocial outcomes.
