Program Overview
The Be Well @ Shell Diabetes Prevention & Care Program is a disease management program designed to help eligible Shell participants get the care and support they need when diagnosed with either prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes. This voluntary, confidential program is provided at no additional cost to participants and is administered by Kelsey-Seybold Clinic.
The Program offers two distinct tracks:
- Diabetes Prevention – for individuals diagnosed with prediabetes (a recent fasting glucose level of 100–124 and/or HbA1c result of 5.7–6.4), or whose physician has indicated they may become prediabetic (HbA1c results of 5.3–5.6), or for those with a family history of diabetes.
- Diabetes Care – designed for individuals diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes (a recent fasting glucose level of 125 or higher and/or HbA1c of 6.5 or greater).
