Trends in the number of diabetes care procedures in outpatient settings for 186 Japanese hospitals in 2019 and 2020. We identified each diabetic care procedure by using reimbursement codes for medical fee payments used throughout Japan. The number of procedures in week 1 (the year-end and New Year Holidays) was very small and thus not shown.
