Diabetes-related mortality and morbidity have continued affecting both racial and ethnic minorities. Diabetes-related mortality morbidity is double higher when compared to the whites who are non-Hispanic. When a comparison is made among those, 12.6% of African American adults have been affected with diabetes than all the non-Hispanic whites, which comprises 7.1% of non-Hispanic whites (Berkowitz et al., 2015). As a result, minorities seek healthcare services due to diabetes-related diseases, mostly diabetes retinopathy, end-stage renal disease, and lower extremity amputations. Nonetheless, for the challenges contributing to various health disparities between minor ethnic and racial groups effectively, the formulation of different interventions should be done using multifactorial approaches, i.e., healthcare policies.
