Dr. Jaiwant Rangi cites a 12-year study showing 94% of diabetes patients see a doctor, but only 23% hit the targets for managing their disease. The problem isn't missing science. It's a broken system that stops good care from actually reaching people.

One study stopped me in cold. You know, it looked at the entire chain of diabetes care in the United States over 12 years. What it showed was 94% of adults with diabetes were connected to the doctor, so, which is great. It's not that these— we don't have access. These patients have access. They're going to the doctors. That sounds reassuring. What is shocking is only 23% or less than 1 in 4 achieved that combined target. The science is not the problem. The system is the problem. Our system is broken. Science is not getting translated to the best care for the patient.
