Diabetes Misdiagnosis (EDM1575)

Diabetes Misdiagnosis

EDM number 1575 in 2010-12, proposed by Keith Vaz on 10/03/2011.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases and Health services.

That this House notes with concern that an estimated100,000 people have been misdiagnosed diabetes or wrongly told which form of the disease they have; further notes that these mistakes have been made because of a lack of understanding of the condition by doctors and health professionals; recognises the impact of information and advice on preventing Type 2 diabetes alongside improving lifestyle factors; and calls on the Government to invest in a national framework and guidelines to steer GPs, to ensure quality of service and to avoid further misdiagnosis.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
