Abstract:
This article describes and contrasts two approaches to planning strategies for diabetes care. These are the 'epidemiologically based healthcare needs assessment' and 'marginal analysis'. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. The most effective way of planning services is likely to be a pragmatic combination of these two approaches.
