<p>This information is not held centrally in the format requested. Diabetes is a disease
which is treated in a number of settings and we are unable to supply all of the relevant
information about resources dedicated to its treatment.</p><p> </p><p>However, we
have provided the following information showing costs that can be specifically linked
with the treatment and procedures related to diabetes.</p><p> </p><p>The following
table shows admitted patient care activity and costs relating to diabetes treatments
for the last five years. These include diabetes with hypoglycaemic disorders, diabetes
with lower limb complications, paediatric diabetes mellitus and amputations for diabetes
or arterial diseases. Admitted patient care costs are collected by Healthcare Resource
Groups (HRGs) which are standard groupings of clinically similar treatments which
use common levels of healthcare resource.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Year</p></td><td><p>Activity</p></td><td><p>Unit
