The Need
Diabetes is the sixth leading cause of death in the United
States. Approximately 20 million Americans have diabetes with an estimated 20.9
percent of the senior population age 60 and older being affected. Millions of
people have diabetes and do not know it. Left undiagnosed, diabetes can lead to
severe complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure,
leg and foot amputations, and death related to pneumonia and flu. Scientific
evidence now shows that early detection and treatment of diabetes with diet,
physical activity, and new medicines can prevent or delay much of the illness
and complications associated with diabetes. (SOURCE: Medicare Learning Network:
