Diabetes Population to Double, Diabetes Costs to Nearly Triple, in 25 Years, New Study Shows

Date:11/26/2009

PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- The diabetes population in the United States will almost double over the next 25 years and annual medical spending on the disease is projected to hit $336 billion, up from $113 billion today, according to a study published in the December issue of Diabetes Care.

Based on this projection, "Medicare spending alone will represent just over 50% of direct spending on diabetes in 2034," the authors concluded.

Unlike past efforts to predict trends in diabetes, the model developed by the University of Chicago team considers the natural progression of the disease, effects of treatment and obesity rates in the United States, which are "factors that are currently not used by government budget analysts," according to the authors.

"Obesity is a significant driver of future increases in the number of Americans with diabetes," said Michael O'Grady, Ph.D., one of the study authors and a senior fellow at the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago. "While our modeling, as well as that done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, project obesity rates leveling off, neither model has obesity rates lowering substantially.
