Validation of the CDC-RTI diabetes cost-effectiveness model
Hoerger, T.J., Segel, J.E., Zhang, P., & Sorensen, S.W. (September 2009).
The CDC-RTI Diabetes Cost-Effective Model accurately assesses representations of the progression of diabetes and can be used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of potential diabetes prevention and treatment programs, according to a new study by researchers at RTI International, University of Michigan School of Public Health, and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention.
The researchers simulated outcomes from the model with outcomes from 24 published trials, measuring incidence of diabetes, renal disease, neuropathy, retinopathy, cardiovascular disease and mortality. The model results were generally close to published outcomes.
