Virtual Diabetes Care:
Unlocking the Keys to Real Results
What you'll learn
Managing the care of people with diabetes is costly and time intensive, especially for our nation's primary care providers who shoulder 80% of that responsibility. Virtual care programs have the potential to fill critical gaps and meet increasing demands, but can they produce real results?
This webinar explores the keys to augmenting traditional brick-and-mortar care with virtual care for people with diabetes.
You will learn:
- The model for a successful virtual care program, including the combination of connected diabetes technologies and care management services.
- Why insulin therapy optimization is a mission critical element.
- How A1C and time in range play a central role in value-based reimbursement.
- Evidence surrounding the clinical and economic impacts of A1C and hypoglycemia.
- The benefits to patients and providers when traditional care is augmented by virtual care, and how both groups are responding to virtual care.
- Real-world data showing sustained A1C reductions of 2.7% points and higher.
