1) Diabetes is a global epidemic that impacts hundreds of millions of people worldwide. The number of cases of diabetes is projected to rise dramatically by 2040 according to the IDF Diabetes Atlas.
2) Poorly managed diabetes can lead to serious health complications and early death, but with good self-management and support people with diabetes can live long, healthy lives.
3) The economic costs of diabetes are enormous, accounting for over 12% of global healthcare expenditures. On average, $1,622 is spent per person with diabetes.

2. There are three
main types of diabetes:
Type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes
and gestational diabetes
Poorly managed
diabetes
leads to serious
complications
and early death
With good self-management and
health professional
support, people with diabetes can
live a long, healthy life

33. Estimating diabetes-related health expenditures
To estimate the health expenditures due to diabetes, the following
inputs were used:
1. IDF Diabetes Atlas estimates of diabetes prevalence
2. United Nations population estimates
3. WHO annual health expenditures
4. WHO mortality rates
5. The ratios of healthcare expenditures for people with
diabetes compared to people without diabetes
The ‘R=2’ estimates assume that health care expenditures for
people with diabetes are on average two-fold higher than people
without diabetes

on diabetes (20-79 years), R=2*, 2015
