Diabetes costs $85,000 per patient to treat over a patient's lifetime
ATLANTA, Aug. 28 () -- U.S. health officials calculated it costs $85,000 to treat a patient with type 2 diabetes over his or her lifetime. Xiaohui Zhuo of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta ran a computer model based on national data on the costs of diabetes. "Persons with diabetes pay on average over $85,000 treating the disease over his or her lifetime," Zhuo said in a statement. This amount includes treatment for diabetes such as insulin,[url=http://www.ksacinc.com/cheapbeats/?]beats by dre outlet[/url], and treatment for conditions that grow from diabetes, such as kidney disease, heart disease and stroke.Zhou said this puts numbers behind the need to prevent type 2 diabetes or to control it if people have the disease. Diet and physical activity can help both prevent and control type 2 diabetes, Zhou said. The study was published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
