The dramatic growth in the rate of diabetes prompts serious debates about awareness, early diagnosis, and care interventions. This Viewpoint aims to explore, from the perspectives of healthcare sector representatives, what challenges and difficulties they face in dealing with diabetes and how these can be overcome. We applied the World Café method for group discussions, which enabled us to bring together 50 stakeholders. They identified challenges at institutional and structural levels under the concepts of awareness, digitalisation, and new forms of care and shared their suggestions for feasible solutions. We learned there is a need for a diabetes map of Germany to identify risk groups and that hybrid solutions should be implemented for treatment, care, prevention, and early diagnosis, considering digital infrastructure. Also, the demand for digital innovation in the healthcare system raised concerns about information transparency and data management.

However, the caution previously exercised due to high complication rates is gradually being replaced by the expanding use of JR therapies for small joints in the hand. Despite this progress, there is a lack of comprehensive data on the outcomes of hand JR and on the optimal infrastructure required to meet the growing demand for these therapies.
