The proposed information-sharing framework promotes patients' self-management of diabetes, revealing that patient participation in diabetes OHC leads to empowering self-management of their diabetes and in turns shedding some light on how healthcare organizations can improve patients' information behaviour through OHC provisions. This qualitative study suggested that the proposed novel framework is perceived as a useful platform to empower diabetic patients in their self-management, extending value of physical group activities.
