They discuss the importance of addressing hypoglycemia risks and the integration of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to improve patient outcomes. The dialogue sheds light on the challenge of balancing cost-effective treatment with the safety and efficacy of diabetes management, emphasizing the need for health plans to adapt to innovative technologies and education for better patient engagement. They highlight how Zing Health is pioneering in providing CGM devices at no cost to members and the impact of recent CMS coverage changes on diabetes care.
