Chronic conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and cancer, represent some of the most common and costly health issues worldwide, particularly when not properly managed. These conditions often require ongoing medical care, frequent hospital visits, and extensive treatments, which leads to soaring healthcare costs.
