MORE than 8,000 people suffering from diabetes in Bradford city centre and its immediate suburbs are to be given a new health passport to ensure they get good quality care to manage the condition.
The passports will give each patient a personal record of when nine key annual health checks are carried out at their GP practice.
The scheme coincides with the second phase of the Bradford City Clinical Commissioning Group's (CCG) 'Bradford Beating Diabetes' (BDD) campaign, launched in November last year, which will see a further 42,000 patients considered to be at risk of developing type 2 diabetes receive letters from their GPs inviting them to attend a check-up.
