The Facts

Prevalence of total diabetes in the United States, all ages -- United States, 2002

Total: 18.2 million people - 6.3% of the population - have diabetes.
Diagnosed: 13 million people
Undiagnosed: 5.2 million people

The cost of diabetes, both direct medical expenditures and the costs of foregone productivity, is estimated to have been $132 billion in 2002. This represents a substantial cost burden to society and, in particular, to those in-dividuals with diabetes and their families. Nevertheless, this estimate is conservative and probably underestimates the true cost of the disease.
