Abstract

We examined a large diverse sample of individuals and found clinical evidence of SUD and psychiatric comorbidities among adults with T2DM. These results highlight the need to identify feasible collaborative care models for adults with T2DM and SUD related psychiatric comorbidities, particularly in primary care settings, that will improve behavioral health and reduce health risk.
