[Is There an Association Between DMP Enrollment and Disability Pension in Rehabilitants With Type 2 Diabetes?] / Besteht bei Rehabilitanden mit Typ-2-Diabetes ein Zusammenhang zwischen DMP-Einschreibung und Bezug einer Erwerbsminderungsrente?

Efficacy of treatment of working-age patients with diabetes mellitus can be increased by rehabilitative measures. This treatment option is explicitly mentioned in the guidelines of the disease management program (DMP) for type 2 diabetes (T2D). With research data from the pension insurance fund, it is shown that for rehabilitation patients with T2D and DMP enrolment, the chance of disability pension is 23% lower than without DMP enrolment, irrespective of relevant covariates.
