AJMC - The American Journal of Managed Care just shared its most-viewed diabetes stories of 2024... No. 4 on the list: 𝗖𝗖𝗦 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗔𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗲𝘁𝗲𝘀; 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. The coverage digs into our survey conducted earlier this year that asked 1500 individuals living with diabetes a variety of questions related to the condition. Learnings ranged from misconceptions about living with diabetes (particularly regarding the efficacy of GLP-1 weight loss drugs as a standalone solution for managing health goals) to the need for ongoing engagement.

"Poor nutrition and unhealthy lifestyles are at the heart of this spike, especially for vulnerable populations who often face challenges such as not being able to access and afford healthy food, an issue that has only further been exacerbated by inflation." CCS Chief Medical Officer, Arti Masturzo MD MBA, weighs in on global trends in diabetes with Melissa Rudy on FOX News. #healthcare #diabetes #chroniccare #healthcareonlinkedin

"Health plans, providers, regulators, manufacturers, and digital health companies have all rallied around the notion that the consumers (formerly known as patients) will vote with their dollars and decisions for services that are, above all, convenient and easy to fit into their increasingly busy lifestyles. But what if the relentless pursuit of 'convenience' leads us astray? While plenty of access barriers need to be addressed, the fixation on convenience as a primary goal for patient care is fraught with potential pitfalls." CCS Chief Medical Officer, Arti Masturzo MD MBA digs deeper in a guest column with Chief Healthcare Executive. 👇 #healthcare #consumerism #healthcareonlinkedin #digitalhealth
