Methods: An online survey of general practitioners and specialists (N=640) who treat people with diabetes in Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States was conducted. Responses regarding HCP background and their patients, HCP perceptions of suboptimal insulin use, and challenges associated with optimal insulin use were collected. Categorical summary statistics were presented. Results:Overall, for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), most physicians indicated Conclusions: The results of this study reveal HCPs believe the extent of suboptimal insulin dosing is less widespread than studies in PwD of self-reported insulin dosing. This discrepancy could lead to difficulties in HCPs giving PwD the best advice on optimal insulin management. Approaches such as improving the objectivity of dose measurements for both PwD and HCPs may improve associated communications and help reduce suboptimal insulin dosing, thus enhancing treatment outcomes.
