Story Behind the Curve

This indicator, or population measure, is part of our Healthy Vermonters 2030 data set. Read more about how this data helps us understand and improve the well-being of people in Vermont on the Healthy Vermonters 2030 webpage.

Because this data is meant to show how the health of our state changes during the decade from 2020-2030, some indicators may have very few data points for now. Keep checking back to see the progress our public health system and partners are making.

Notes on Methodology

Vermont diabetes-related mortality data come from the Vermont Department of Health Vital Statistics System.

These data describe deaths of Vermonters occurring in- and out-of-state. Diabetes-related deaths include all deaths where diabetes was an underlying, or primary, cause of death as weel as those where diabetes was a contributing cause of death among residents 18 years or older at the time of their death. Diabetes as a cause of death is determined using Internal classification of Disease, 10^th revision (ICD-10) diagnosis codes exclusively.

See the Diabetes Surveillance page for more in-depth and routinely updated data on diabetes in Vermont.
