-
reduce hospital admissions for diabetes;
-
improve quality of life for persons with diabetes;
-
focus on wellness and health;
-
reduce the acute and chronic costs associated with diabetes management.
To achieve these objectives, the CDE regards all stakeholders (healthcare providers, Medical Funders, and the patients themselves) as partners and members of the diabetes team. Membership of the CDE Diabetes Management Programme is voluntary and open on application to all persons who have diabetes and who belong to a medical aid that has contracted the services of this Programme.
