Proportion of Indigenous regular clients with type 2 diabetes whose HbA1c measurement result, recorded within the previous 6 months or 12 months, was categorised as one of the following:

• less than or equal to 7% (less than or equal to 53 mmol/mol);
• greater than 7% but less than or equal to 8% (greater than 53 mmol/mol but less than or equal to 64 mmol/mol);
• greater than 8% but less than 10% (greater than 64 mmol/mol but less than 86 mmol/mol) or;
• greater than or equal to 10% (greater than or equal to 86 mmol/mol).

Presented as a percentage.

Exclude type 1 diabetes, secondary diabetes, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), previous GDM, impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).

Calculated separately for each HbA1c range, for each time period.

Include only the most recent HbA1c measurement from each time period.

If the client has had their HbA1c measured more than once in the relevant period, only the most recently recorded result is included in this calculation.
