Nearly 25% of veterans who receive VA care have diabetes, compared with about 10% of the US population.1,2 Within the VA, diabetes is the leading cause of long-term complications such as blindness, kidney failure, and amputation.1

Over the past decade, racial and ethnic disparities in early glycemic control have narrowed within the veteran, but differences in continuous glucose monitor (CGM) prescriptions remain.3,4

The quality of diabetes management also varies depending on where veterans receive their care. A recent study showed that veterans seeking care in community settings had lower rates of diabetes testing and immunizations, fewer primary care visits, higher rates of hospitalization, and higher health care costs compared with veterans who were treated directly within the VA.5
