Clinical or Health System Question

Patients with type 2 diabetes between the ages of 40-50

The increasing number of age-related diseases in the United States (US) needs a comprehensive healthcare approach. A recent approach adopted is the Triple Aim Initiative, an initiative helping to solve health system issues. Individuals with type 2 diabetes between the ages of 40-50 require good medical attention and quality service delivery. The above health population is associated with multiple comorbidities that have frequently been excluded from major healthcare programs such as the Triple Aim Initiative. Educating individuals within the age of 40-50 on type 2 diabetes requires a coordinated and elaborate approach at homes or in the hospital setting (Yakaryılmaz, 2017). For an objective and analysis of concepts, the following questions are essential in unravelling health population related issues.
