This morning med tech giant Abbott announced a new deal with chronic care management company Omada Health that will integrate Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre continuous glucose monitor (CGM) with Omada's health coaching platform.
Going forward, eligible users with Type 2 diabetes will have the option to integrate data from their FreeStyle Libre, including glucose reading, trends and patterns, with Omada’s platform. When users enroll in the program, they can access a virtual physician, who can prescribe them the CGM.
Through the Omada interface, users can get personalized behavior coaching to improve their glucose management. Users also have access to text- and chat-based coaching with a certified diabetes educator.
"The biggest barriers to success for T2D participants has always been immediate access to a diabetes educator when they need it most and a lack of accurate glucose and nutrition data so that we can personalize treatment," Sean Duffy, CEO of Omada, wrote in an email to MobiHealthNews. "With this collaboration, participants will now be able to track progress and receive proactive, tailored recommendations from their assigned certified diabetes educator (CDE) coaches."
