Summary

Diabetes imposes a growing global burden due to rising care costs and reduced quality of life from its complications. Managing the disease remains challenging for many patients, highlighting the need for effective, scalable support strategies. Peer support has shown promise in improving diabetes self-management, yet evidence from randomized trials in Ethiopia, particularly on both clinical and economic outcomes, is limited. Thus, this study aimed to evaluated the effect of a peer support intervention on glycemic control and economic burden among patients with diabetes.
