Download or read book Socio Economic Impact of Type II Diabetes Mellitus written by Saima Nazir and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India will face one of the toughest struggles against diabetes in the region and will be the largest contributor to regional mortality with 9,83,000 deaths attributable to diabetes. Type-II diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health problem with more than 471 billion USD spent on healthcare for diabetes. The WHO predicts DM to become the seventh leading cause of death in the world by 2030. An estimated 3.4 million people have died from the consequences of high blood sugar in 2004. Out of all the deaths caused by DM, 80% of them occur in low and middle-income countries. DM is an expensive disease as per capita cost of managing the disease is 2-4 folds higher than the non-diabetics. Treatment costs increase with disease duration, presence of complications, hospitalization and urban settings. Healthcare expenditures on diabetes accounted for 11.6% of the total healthcare expenditure in the world in 2010. By 2030, this amount will exceed USD 490 billion. The direct cost on diabetes healthcare is usually very high for people in developing countries. Present study focuses on studying economic impact of DM in urban and rural field practice area of Sri Siddhartha medical college and examining of the financial coping mechanisms.OBJECTIVES: 1.To estimate the total expenditure incurred by Diabetics and its socio economic impact on their families. 2.To estimate the magnitude of Catastrophic Hospital Expenditure (CHE) due to type-II Diabetes Mellitus. 3. To assess the financial coping mechanisms of households with Type-II Diabetes mellitus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cross sectional study was conducted in urban and rural field practice areas of Sri Siddhartha Medical College in Tumkur. 180 study subjects each from urban and rural field practice area were included in the study and systematic random sampling method was used to include the study subjects . RESULTS:Mean total diabetic expenditure was higher among urban study subjects at 778 rupees per month while it was lesser among the rural study subjects which was 285 rupees per month. This was statistically significant. Total monthly indirect diabetic expenditure was higher among urban population (190 rupees ) as compared to rural study subjects who spend around 145 rupees .This was also statistically significant . Catastrophic hospital expenditure was experienced by 27 % of study subjects, higher in urban area (30%) than rural area (24%). Mobilising savings and using cash were the commonest coping up strategies adopted by diabetics. CONCLUSION:Mean total direct cost incurred by diabetic study subjects per month was higher in urban area (778 Rupees) than rural areas( 285 Rupees) .Diabetics from both urban and rural areas spend most on purchase of oral medication (64% and 61% respectively). Mean indirect cost of diabetes per month was higher in urban areas (190 rupees) than in rural area (145 rupees) with major indirect loss coming from loss of wages. Catastrophic hospital spending was experienced more by urban area diabetics (30%) than among rural diabetics (24%). However catastrophic hospital spending increased among hospitalized study subjects from both urban and rural area (84% among urban and 83% among rural areas).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health care related expenditure for diabetes is increasing at an alarming rate all over the world and it is creating a huge burden. The economic effects of diabetes go beyond the costs that economies need to invest in diagnosis, care and prevention. Primary evidence on these issues are scarce even in developed world and these are almost absent in the developing countries like Bangladesh. The present study was conducted to estimate the economic burden of type-2 diabetes mellitus with particular focus on nutrition related costs among 531 registered participants (aged 30 years) with more than 1 year duration of diabetes. The average annual cost of care was found US $ 314 (direct cost US $ 283 and indirect cost US $ 37) ranging from US $ 23 to US $ 1334. Average nutrition related cost was US $ 1.5 per person per day. This study has also identified that the average annual cost of diabetes care per patient in OPD of tertiary care facility in Bangladesh is US$ 313 (Tk. 25,102) and with an estimated 9.5 million diabetic patients in the country the total annual burden will be US $ 2973.5 (Tk. 237,880) million.

This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2021 in the subject Economy - Health Economics, grade: N/A, language: English, abstract: This research explores the cost, life expectancy and quality of life impact of a national quarterly monitoring program on type 2 diabetes for non-insulin-dependent patients. In Ukraine, many people suffer from diabetes and its complications. In this research we focus only on type 2 diabetes, as the most common type of diabetes. Among those we focus only on non-insulin-dependent patients, as these are the patients that would benefit the most from the improved monitoring. Diabetes leads to lower life expectancy, lower quality of life of an individual, and higher healthcare costs both for people and the healthcare system. This burden increases even more if diabetes is not managed. The research analyses the potential impact of a nationwide point of care based non-insulin-dependent diabetics monitoring program. The research method used in the study is the combined cost-effectiveness analysis and budget impact analysis from the payer perspective. This is a special type of the summative evaluation research used to assess the impact of a healthcare program. With the research method, the author answers the question whether the proposed diabetes monitoring strategy is more cost-effective than the standard of care. The author also answers the question what the impact of a nation-wide diabetes monitoring program on the annual healthcare budget of the payer would be. He also analyses the average cost associated with diabetes during the lifetime of an average patient from the payer perspective; the impact on the quality of life of such a patient, and on her (his) life expectancy. All this provides important information to assess the impact of an alternative healthcare economic policy for diabetes. Two formal decision scientific models were developed. They model the situation of diabetics with quarterly point of care based HbA1c monitoring progra
Download or read book Diabetes Mellitus in Developing Countries and Underserved Communities written by Sam Dagogo-Jack and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adopting a truly global perspective and a practical approach to diabetes—including pathophysiology, genetics, regional peculiarities, management, prevention and best practices—this book is an excellent resource for clinicians and policy-makers working with patients in more austere settings. The global prevalence of diabetes is estimated to increase from 422 million in 2014 to 592 million in 2035. Sadly, low- and middle-economy countries are projected to experience the steepest increase, but even in developed economies, vulnerable demographic subgroups manifest disparities in diabetes prevalence, quality of care, and outcomes. This book extends coverage to those underserved and minority communities in the developed world. In a consistent chapter format, it discusses classification, pathophysiology, genomics, diagnosis, prevention and management of diabetes in economically challenged regions as well as underserved populations in affluent nations. Suggestions regarding future directions in the organization of diabetes care delivery, prevention and research priorities are also provided. The detailed identification of barriers to optimal care and the practical approach to the management and prevention of diabetes make Diabetes Mellitus in Developing Countries and Underserved Communities a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers and health policy leaders.

Download or read book Communities in Action written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.
