Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic degenerative disease that involves a major challenge for health care systems. In Mexico represents 34 % of the budget for social services in the country, and speaking of these direct and indirect costs range from 330 to 100 million dollars per year respectively. Since 2008 an institutional program for the prevention and treatment targeted to the diabetic patient named DiabetIMSS Module, this involved a multidisciplinary patient-led approach with a diagnosis of diabetes. This paper conducted an analysis from the systemic approach which involved considering the dynamic contexts that shape systems as well as the interactions between them, using the SWOT method. Finally a strategy matrix was performed in order to consider them as strategies for improvement of this program will not only benefit the patient, but the family and the collective.
