DIABETES
SCREENING INITIATIVE |
|
BACKGROUND
|
|
Diabetes
is a silent killer and cannot be reversed / cured once an individual
becomes a confirmed case of diabetes. Published literature says
that out of every 03 patients who are confirmed cases there
are 4 more borderline cases who need to be monitored and educated
so that do not become confirmed cases in the next 02 –
05 years. Therefore education, prevention and constant monitoring
of the border line cases are a must. Bayer Healthcare a leading
Diabetes Management company has joined hands with Exotic Echo
to initiate steps to prevent people from becoming fully diabetic. |
MISSION |
|
Exotic Echo has a mission to test
a total of 02 crore individuals through out rural India in the
next 6-8 years for their tendency for diabetes. In PHASE I of
the project the aim is to screen 05 lakh individuals in North
East India by 31 Dec 2010. |
|
PLAN
|
|
Screen people by taking help of
the network of self help groups and community leaders in the
three states. The DIABETES screening programme commenced on
the 06 Dec 2008 in Diezephe Village in Nagaland. The plan envisages
doing the first test free for every person and the second test
free for the individuals who are detected to have blood sugar
levels above the acceptable levels. People will be charged a
very affordable amount for subsequent tests. For individuals
who do not have the capacity to pay will be tested free. The
funds for free testing will be secured by income from paid testing,
possession of glucose sugar monitoring machines by the screened
population , member contributions and voluntary contributions
from the people. Once the screening, detection and education
programme model becomes successful, the plan is to showcase
the model to Government and if absolutely unavoidable, secure
a part of the health budget to distribute the monitoring system
and do the testing for the needy people who cannot afford it. |
