    3. We Have an Epidemic of Diabetes !

    4. Diabetes a Human Drama

    5. Rationale for a Diabetes Program Only 55% of people with diabetes remain on therapy after 12 months There are significant knowledge deficits in 50-80% of individuals with diabetes Each $1 spent on outpatient diabetes education saves $2-3 in hospitalization costs

    6. Diabetes Control Not at ADA Goal

    7. AACE states May 18 2005: Diabetes is Worsening 2 out of 3 patients do not reach A1c of 6.5% 98% of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes agree that blood sugar control is important 84% of Americans with type 2 diabetes feel they are doing a good job of managing their diabetes 61% do not know what the A1C test is 51% do not know what their last A1C number was The medical community needs to intervene earlier and more aggressively to control blood sugar

    9. Diabetes: Huge Cost to Society Diabetes costs $132 billion/year* = 10% of HC spending (< 7% are drugs) 25% of all Medicare budget Individual healthcare costs for diabetes $13,243/yr* 2.4 times higher than non-diabetes Better glycemic control can lead to $685-950 annual savings per patient** Co-payments doubled, 23% reduction consumption: +17% emergency room; +10% hospital stay

    10. A Progressive Disease NEEDS Aggressive Treatment" 1. Diagnose Early 2. Establish baseline 3. Implement aggressive treatment 4. TREAT TO TARGET1. Diagnose Early 2. Establish baseline 3. Implement aggressive treatment 4. TREAT TO TARGET

    11. Goal of Diabetes Treatment Mimic physiologic insulin release Intensively treat to goals Control FPG levels from ?80 to ?120* mg/dL PPG levels from ?100 to ?140 mg/dL A1C to <7%1 (<6.5%2) Intensively treat diabetes comorbidity
