Abstract

We used data from the U.S. National Health Interview Survey to estimate the effect of diabetes on labor market outcomes. In the year 2050 an estimated 1.46 million U.S. adults will not be working; 597,000 will be work disabled; and 780,000 will have work limitations as a result of diabetes.
