Population Outcomes and Return on Value With CGMs
April 18th 2025Experts discuss the metrics used to evaluate continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)'s comprehensive return on investment, including both cost savings and quality measure performance, and identify which patient populations demonstrate the strongest combined benefits in costs, quality measures, and outcomes, along with how these groups are prioritized for CGM access.
The Metro Nashville Public Schools Initiative
April 11th 2025Experts discuss how to evaluate and communicate the return on investment for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) coverage to overcome cost-related barriers, explore strategies other payers could adopt based on the success of Metro Nashville Public Schools' initiative to provide CGM devices without prior authorization, and examine the impact of removing prior authorization requirements on appropriate patient selection and utilization, along with which aspects of this model could be adopted by other employers and the resources needed to implement similar programs.
Health Care System Integration
March 28th 2025Experts discuss the role of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived metrics, particularly glucose management indicator (GMI), in the new Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) diabetes care measures and ACO quality targets, and how CGM-specific metrics are being incorporated into the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA)’s quality measures and the implications for health plans.
CGM's Impact on Clinical Inertia
March 14th 2025This program was supported through an independent medical education grant from Dexcom Medical Affairs. Experts discuss how continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) adoption impacts clinical inertia and supports earlier therapeutic interventions across different patient populations, highlighting measurable improvements in patient outcomes, such as glycemic control, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, hypoglycemic events, and quality of life.
Key Benefits of CGM Technology
March 14th 2025This program was supported through an independent medical education grant from Dexcom Medical Affairs. Experts discuss the key benefits of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology compared with traditional monitoring based on recent clinical trial data, including research on cardiovascular risk reduction in noninsulin-treated T2D.
CGM: Redefining Type 2 Diabetes Management
December 19th 2024A panelist discusses how continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology can help overcome therapeutic inertia and key barriers to glycemic control in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients by providing real-time data that enables earlier interventions, supports treatment optimization, and helps managed care organizations justify broader CGM adoption for newly diagnosed patients.
