“…The impact of this low effective coverage/metabolic control was studied using the IMS Core Model for Chile. Interestingly, it was reported that if 50% of diabetic patients could achieve the glycemic goals (and 20% reach those for blood pressure and dyslipidemia), the country would avoid 13,983 cases of blindness, 12,539 cases of acute myocardial infarction and 22,464 deaths in a 10 year period [45]. A complementary analysis used individual risk profiles of diabetic patients provided by the NHS 2010 in the context discrete event simulation model to project outcomes based on the UKPDS Outcome Model 2 [46].…”

“…In terms of economic costs, the International Diabetes Federation estimated that 10.2% of the total health expenditure was attributable to diabetes in 2013 [47]. This is equivalent to USD $1,427 per diabetic person per year [45]. It was also estimated that a newly diagnosed patient with no complications during his/her life would cost USD $12,300, on average, an amount that would increase to USD $16,500 if heart disease appeared and Despite the low percentage, this treatment constitutes a considerable economic burden in health expenditures [57].…”
