Barriers to Adequate Cancer Management

Following are some of the limitations that your patients commonly experience:

  • Glycemic control is crucial in the management of diabetes, limitations in appropriate and timely use of insulin impede patient health-care
  • Diabetic care is hardly patient-centric, and has a severe impact on patient’s convenience and lifestyle.
  • Lack of awareness and education among patients hinders effective diabetic monitoring and control.
  • Unavailability or inaccessibility of healthcare resources, like at-home sugar testing tools, is another major obstruction that patients face.
  • The financial and out-of-pocket expenses involved in getting adequate diabetic treatment are taxing for the patients
  • Non-compliance and poor adherence to advice, and a general lack of understanding among patients leads to suboptimal treatment.
