DIP : To conduct a pragmatic, non-blinded randomized controlled trial (pRCT) of immediate in-patient postpartum OGTT prior to delivery discharge (intervention) versus 4-12 week outpatient postpartum OGTT (current standard care) to improve the frequency of post-partum diabetes screening among individuals with a pregnancy complicated by GDM. Follow up PP CARE: To engage with individuals with a history of GDM through a patient-centered mixed-methods survey and qualitative assessment to evaluate the barriers to and facilitators of Cardiovascular health (CVH) counseling and risk-reduction postpartum at the patient and healthcare system levels inclusive of Social determinants of health (SDOH) and structural factors, as well as patient preferences and perspectives on CVH and wellness interventions
