Abstract: A doctor's communication competence determines the level of success in helping the treatment of a patient's illness. Preliminary survey results show that many patients consider doctors rarely greet patients at the beginning of a consultation session, so that it has a direct impact on patients who are afraid to express their complaints. This study aims to analyze the effect of interpersonal communication in improving the quality of life of patients with diabetes mellitus. This type of research was a type of quantitative survey with a cross-sectional approach with a sample of 60 respondents. The variables included in the study were openness, empathy, supportive attitude, positive attitude, equality, and quality of life of patients. Data were analyzed using chi-square test and logistic regression test. The results showed that the variables that influence the improvement of the quality of life of patients with diabetes mellitus on average around 55 - 72%. These results indicate that the quality of doctor communication still needs to be improved. This improvement is expected to be able to improve the quality of life of DM patients who are currently still around 43.3%. (More)
