Beating Diabetes by Peter Volberding, Aug 14, 2008 (3:51am)

HR 2241 allocates approximately $130 million over the next four years. The CDC would partner with state and local governments to help gather information about diabetes and then establish programs to help fight its spread. Even though the cost may seem high, the American Diabetes Association estimates that diabetes accounts for over $174 billion in terms of direct medical expenditures and lost productivity, and the number of Americans diagnosed has doubled in 15 years.
