| Abstract | Diabetes is one of the deadliest non-communicable diseases that imposes huge costs on societies. The imposed cost, which is a direct consequence of the incidence of this disease, is known as the burden of disease that is commonly quantified by a summarized health indicator known as DALY (Disability Adjusted Life Years). Due to the limitation of financial resources, in order to minimize the burden of the disease an optimized policy is required for budget distribution among the different fields associated with this disease, i.e. monitoring and treatment. In this research, by exploring the existing models, a Markov chain model is developed for modeling the burden of type 2 diabetes. Simulation of 10-year DALY on this model shows that the usual 50/50 budget distribution policy between monitoring and treatment, which is generally used in developing countries, is not an appropriate strategy for the current status of this disease. In fact, a better policy is to focus more on monitoring in initial years in order to discover undiagnosed diabetic people. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
