**4. Conclusion**

A baseline analysis is affirmed as a fundamental prerequisite for the development of diabetes interventions for better outcomes. It also helps in identifying and addressing medical and non-medical factors which could impact diabetes care activities. Therefore, a baseline analysis is a foundational and critical step toward comprehensive healthcare intervention for better diabetes outcomes. There is a need to assess the capacity of healthcare providers to conduct a baseline analysis to determine the need for support and in-service training. An inappropriately-conducted baseline analysis may lead to inappropriate solutions and misdiagnosis. The implementation of inappropriate solutions would defeat the objective of improving diabetes outcomes.
