You are eligible to join the NDR if you started to use insulin to manage your diabetes on or after 1 January 1999.
There are 2 ways to join the National Diabetes Register:
- Register with the National Diabetes Services Scheme. The Scheme is a Commonwealth Government program that provides blood and urine testing strips, insulin pump consumables, syringes and needles for special injection systems at subsidised prices to people who register for its benefits. Diabetes Australia has administered the Scheme for the Commonwealth since 1987.
- If you are under the age of 15, you can be registered with the Australasian Paediatric Endocrine Group, and give agreement on their registration form to share your information with the National Diabetes Register.
Please note:
You may withdraw from the National Diabetes Register at any time by sending written notice to:
