The United States continues to make significant progress in addressing accessibility, cost, quality, and safety of health care services. Medicaid and Medicare policies are key reforms that protect vulnerable populations such as the elderly, those living with disability, and low-income households. However, persistent high costs of care, quality concerns, and accessibility reinforce the need for a national health insurance to deliver comprehensive and longitudinal care across the continuum. The goal is to promote coordinated service delivery to enable more Americans access timely, acceptable and affordable care of the anticipated quality.

ØSocial media is a crucial part of diabetes health conversations. Platforms such as Facebook and Twitter enable diabetes educators to reach more people who benefit from adequate evidence-based information about preventing and managing diabetes. In this case, it is important to develop diabetes infographics, videos, and podcasts and share the link in social media posts and tweets for greater engagement.
