Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Rural individuals (mostly Indigenous) were screened for undiagnosed diabetes and cardiovascular risk. A subsequent survey showed roughly half engaged in timely follow-up with the health care system. The Mobile Diabetes Screening Initiative identifies a substantial number of people needing medical attention, who may otherwise be "missed" through conventional healthcare delivery.
