As National Diabetes Week kicks off, A/Professor Sof Andrikopoulos, CEO of Australian Diabetes Society (ADS), and Aviva Assouline, Senior Business Director Diabetes ANZ at Medtronic, are calling for the #diabetes epidemic to be tackled with the urgency it demands. The landmark diabetes inquiry report, hailed as a "Herculean effort by the committee", is a focal point of the discussion. Highlighting a crucial recommendation from the report, A/Professor Andrikopoulos, says "If we don't have health economic analysis to understand where the pain points are, how can we put plans together, put programs together, put activities together to address those areas of opportunity in diabetes?" With around two million Australians living with diabetes, this year's National Diabetes Week theme, 'Unite in the Fight for Tech,' is especially relevant. "Australia still lags behind other countries when we think about the pace in which new #innovation is launching and the access to that innovation," notes Viv.
