Course Description

This non-promotional, sponsored webinar will review health plan best practice recommendations for continuous glucose monitoring with an impressive panel of clinical and managed care experts.

As the US Market continues to evolve, so does the complexity of payers and providers navigating best practices that ensure their members have access to high-quality, cost-effective care. AMCP’s Market Insights Best Practice provides recommendations from our managed care members to help their peers make the best coverage and access decisions.

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is a key intervention for advancing diabetes management and enhancing patient engagement and the care experience. Managed care and payer professionals remain instrumental in facilitating CGM access and related patient education efforts. Although diabetes technology has seen increased uptake over the past several years, recent innovation in CGM highlights an opportunity for optimal outcomes and quality improvement in managed care.

In this webinar, a panel of experts discuss health plan best practices related to continuous glucose monitoring. Following the presentation, join the panelists for a live Q&A session.
