Diabetes Data Set (Summary Core) Overview

The Diabetes Data Set (Summary Core) is developed to ensure people with diabetes have up to date records of their risk factors, current management, treatment target achievements and arrangements and outcomes of regular surveillance for complications, to help them monitor their care and make informed choices about their management.

The Diabetes Data Set (Summary Core) will also ensure that when people with diabetes meet health care professionals the consultation is fully informed by comprehensive, up to date and accurate information.
