Research Abstract |
According to the analysis of the database linking health evaluations and healthcare claims (receipt), we found that only approximately 30% of screened diabetics or hypertensives consulted clinicians for clinical follow-up. Predictors for failure to follow were younger age and modestly higher values (HBA1c, blood pressure) than the cut-off (Tsujimura, Diabetes Res Clin Pract [in press] ). In addition, interview surveys were conducted on 11 people who moved from the Tohoku district after the Great East Japan Earthquake (2011). We found that they were not assured for their opportunities to participate in the health evaluation if they did not move their residential registry from the original places to the places where they had moved to (submitted).
