Abstract: This paper investigates the salient diabetes prevalence patterns across key SES indicators, and how they changed over time.The investigation spans both the conventional concept of diagnosed diabetes and a more comprehensive measure including those whose diabetes is undiagnosed.By doing so, I separate the distinct impact of covariates on disease onset, better self-management, and the probability of disease diagnosis.Emphasis is given to SES correlates of undiagnosed diabetes and how these changed as those with undiagnosed diabetes plummeted over the last 25 years.I estimate the differential ability by education to successful self-manage diabetes, especially when disease self-management became more complicated.
