DESIGN: Merged Veteran Health Administration and Medicare fee-for-service claims data (N = 485,893). RESULTS: Thirty-one percent of patients with diabetes were diagnosed with either mental illness or substance use and had higher rates of diabetes-related complications. Women were more likely to have serious mental illness; African Americans and Latinos more likely to have drug and/or alcohol use. CONCLUSION: Prevalence of substance use disorder and mental illness differed by socio-demographics, suggesting the need for tailored diabetes management interventions.en-USAdultAfrican AmericansAgedChronic DiseaseClassificationComorbidityDiabetes MellitusDiagnosis, Dual (Psychiatry)Ethnic GroupsFemaleHispanic AmericansHumansMaleMedicareMental DisordersMiddle AgedPopulationSex FactorsSocioeconomic FactorsSubstance-Related DisordersUnited StatesUnited States Department of Veterans AffairsVeteransHealth Services ResearchMental and Social HealthPsychiatric and Mental HealthPsychiatryPsychiatry and PsychologyJournal Articlehttps://escholarship.umassmed.edu/psych_cmhsr/4111900240psych_cmhsr/411
