Diabetes Mellitus Interagency Coordinating Committee; Notice of Meeting

    The Diabetes Mellitus Interagency Coordinating Committee (DMICC) 
will hold a meeting on Tuesday, December 2, 2008, on the NIH campus, 
Building 31, C-wing, Conference Room 6, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 from 
12:30 p.m. to approximately 4:30 p.m. The meeting will be open to the 
public, with attendance limited to space available. Individuals who 
plan to attend and need special assistance, such as sign language 
interpretation or other reasonable accommodations, should inform the 
Contact Person listed below at least 10 days in advance of the meeting.
    The DMICC facilitates cooperation, communication, and collaboration 
on diabetes among government entities. DMICC meetings, held several 
times annually, provide an opportunity for members to learn about and 
discuss current and future diabetes programs in DMICC member 
organizations and to identify opportunities for collaboration. The 
topic of the December meeting will be ``Using Data from Managed Care 
Systems to Drive Improved Therapy of Diabetes.''

    Please Note: The NIH has instituted security measures to ensure 
the safety of NIH employees and property. All visitor vehicles, 
including taxicabs, hotel, and airport shuttles will be inspected 
before being allowed on campus. Visitors will be asked to show one 
form of identification (for example, a government-issued photo ID, 
driver's license, or passport). All visitors should be prepared to 
have their personal belongings inspected and to go through metal 
detection inspection. Visitors are strongly encouraged to take 
public transportation to the NIH campus as there are very few 
visitor parking spaces available. Building 31 is a 10-minute walk 
from the Medical Center Station on the Red Line of the Metro.
