Estimated diabetes diagnosis rate (12074) Metric type
- Help text
- The estimated diabetes diagnosis rate, expressed as a percentage defined as the observed number of people with a formal diagnosis of diabetes as a proportion of the estimated number with diabetes. That is the total number of patients registered with GP practices, aged 17 and over at midnight on the 31st March in a particular year that have been diagnosed with diabetes mellitus.
In order to produce estimates for LAs, numerator counts were estimated by aggregating general practice level data. Each general practice was allocated to a located authority within which its main surgery is located, using the NHS Postcode Directory.
The prevalence estimates of diabetes are generated by the results of a model and do not represent actual prevalence. The estimates are unable to take into account any additional data that may impact on the estimate. This indicator has replaced the original 2.17 Recorded diabetes indicator. The original indicator was found to be difficult to interpret since it could not be judged whether a high value was good or bad. The updated indicator, 2.17 Estimated diabetes diagnosis rate, is easier to interpret. A value close to 100% indicates a small gap between the observed prevalence and estimated prevalence and indicates that a system is good at proactively identifying people with hitherto undiagnosed diabetes.
