Health Care System Integration
ByDavida Kruger, MSN, APN-BC, BC-ADM ,Jaime Murillo, MD, FACC, FASE ,Ian Neeland, MD, FAHA, FACC,Ken Cohen, MD, FACP,Jeremy Wigginton, MD, MBA, FAAFP Experts 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.

Understanding CGM Metrics
ByDavida Kruger, MSN, APN-BC, BC-ADM ,Jaime Murillo, MD, FACC, FASE ,Ian Neeland, MD, FAHA, FACC,Ken Cohen, MD, FACP,Jeremy Wigginton, MD, MBA, FAAFP Experts discuss the relative value of different continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics (glucose management indicator [GMI], time in range, glucose variability) in assessing glycemic control and how these outcomes vary across different patient populations.

CGM vs Traditional Monitoring
ByDavida Kruger, MSN, APN-BC, BC-ADM ,Jaime Murillo, MD, FACC, FASE ,Ian Neeland, MD, FAHA, FACC,Ken Cohen, MD, FACP,Jeremy Wigginton, MD, MBA, FAAFP Experts discuss the clinical and practical factors that guide decision-making when recommending continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) vs traditional glucose monitoring for patients with type 2 diabetes.

CGM's Impact on Clinical Inertia

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.
