En la diabetes se han propuesto determinados indicadores de proceso (que se hace) y de resultados (como se hace) por parte de la Asociación Americana de Diabetes (ADA)9 y de la Organización para el desarrollo económico y cooperación (OECD)10 para pacientes ambulatorios.

English translation:What should be done/How it is done/
Explanation:
What to do and how to do it - directions on how to proceed.
I gather that this is a list of checks or measure to make sure that you are following the correct treatment process while the process is taking place.

Explanation:
Bueno, por empezar faltan los acentos: "qué", y "cómo".
En el primer caso parece obvio que se trata de qué es lo que se debe hacer. En el segundo, dado que se refiere a los resultados, creo que se refiere a cómo se ha cumplido con dicha pautas.
Los "indicadores de proceso" deben ser los "process-of-care indicators".

http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/26/7/2032.full

A total of 120 patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes were randomly assigned to receive their care in group visits or usual care for 6 months. After 6 months, concordance with 10 process-of-care indicators recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) standards of care was evaluated through chart abstraction.
