Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic illness that affects the world on an epidemic scale. It requires complex healthcare and considerable economic resources. Diabetes disease management programs use a variety of strategies to improve clinical outcome measures and reduce costs. Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of these programs on reducing glycosylated hemoglobin levels, improving cardiovascular risks, and reducing utilization of services. However, the most effective components of disease management strategies or combination of strategies remain unknown. This narrative review explores the components, impact, benefits, and barriers of current diabetes disease management models and also presents a novel hybrid model incorporating elements of both on-site and off-site programs.
