The number of people living with diabetes is increasing globally, with approximately 90% having Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The fundamental management of T2DM relies on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. This includes regular medical visits for monitoring, balanced diet management, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy body weight. Telehealth has gained attention as a means of supporting the continuous self-management and treatment of people living with diabetes.
This report focuses on diabetes telehealth programs currently available or being piloted in European countries. It examines their organizational aspects based on findings from a scoping review and a questionnaire survey.
