Definitions and methodology The tables show the estimated numbers of incidence cases (see 'Definitions and methodology' for details). The calculations are based on health insurance claims submitted to the Estonian Health Insurance Fund.
The statistics cover cases of both insured and uninsured Estonians and Estonian residents.
Age is unknown in less than 0.1% of cases. The numbers of cases are not directly comparable with the statistics published in tables EH10 and EH11 until 2016.
Tables EH10 and EH11 show the incidence cases registered by healthcare providers. Before, the data which morbidity statistics were based on, were aggregated, not person-based. Thus, multiple counting of a single case could not be avoided and previously published statistics are likely to be overestimated. 14.11.2025 updated data for the years 2016-2023.
The dataset provides an overview of new cases of diabetes in Estonia. The data is presented by year, diagnoses (ICD-10 codes E10-E14), sex, and age groups. Data cover both insured and uninsured Estonians and residents of Estonia, but do not include contacts with the health care system if a person has visited a health care provider that does not have a treatment financing contract with the Estonian Health Insurance Fund, or if the health care provider is a Estonian Health Insurance Fund contract partner but the person paid for the service in full themselves. Also diagnoses registered in prisons and the Estonian Defence Forces are excluded. The purpose of collecting incidence data is to provide a regular and comparable overview of morbidity for selected diagnoses to support health policy, prevention, and service planning. Data source: the diabetes incidence calculations are based on treatment claims submitted to the Estonian Health Insurance Fund; the indicators are calculated and published by the National Institute for Health Development.
