| Core Tip |
Diabetic patients require more medical care services than non-diabetics as a result of their high chances of comorbidities, poor glycemic control, and frequent hospitalization. Despite the promising upsurge in the number of diabetic patients seeking medical care services due to awareness, some personal and institutional factors continue to limit patients’ chances of access to diabetes care. Furthermore, there is a lacuna in the diabetes literature concerning the extent of utilization of medical services available by individuals with diabetes. |
