•-Patients (men or women) with diabetes type 2
•-Enlisted with the diabetes service of the Diagnostic Center in Etten-Leur (SHL)
•-Age 60 years or older

•Those with a cardiologist-confirmed (and thus known with a) diagnosis of heart failure. The latter group will not be invited for the diagnostic assessment at the cardiology outpatient clinic, to prevent them from redundant investigations. Moreover, by adding up the prevalence of those already known with heart failure with the prevalence rate of newly detected (previously unknown) heart failure patients after the diagnostic assessment provides the overall prevalence of heart failure in patients with diabetes aged 60 years and over. Thus, the overall prevalence rate of heart failure (known plus newly detected) can be calculated without diagnostic assessment of those with diabetes already known with established heart failure. This group will be asked to answer the Quality of Life questionnairres.
