The article highlights how expanding access to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) within risk-sharing agreements can improve glycemic outcomes and support value-based diabetes care, particularly for patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. Real-world data from Ohio demonstrated rapid HbA1c reductions and high HEDIS target attainment when CGM was paired with reduced prior authorization and interdisciplinary care. An expert payer-provider panel recommended focusing risk-based CGM programs on non–insulin-treated patients with HbA1c >8%, using HbA1c and emerging CGM-derived metrics for performance measurement, and leveraging team-based models to reduce utilization and address health equity.

CGM initiation at hospital discharge is a practical way to support safer transitions of care, improve post-discharge glycemic management, and reduce preventable healthcare utilization. Early experience with structured protocols shows this approach is feasible and well-received by both patients and providers. This article shares an implementation pathway adapted from the Johns Hopkins Medicine CGM Hospital Discharge protocol.

Initiation and persistence of CGM use (>270 days/year) was associated with a significantly greater A1c reduction at 12 months (-1.52%) versus no CGM, regardless of therapy. Adding a GLP-1, SGLT2i, or insulin with CGM resulted in additional significant A1c reduction. These results highlight the broad benefits of sustained CGM use across different medication types, including for individuals not using insulin.

Early detection and management of gestational diabetes (GDM) benefits both mother and infants. For women with early GDM, Dexcom CGM improved maternal and neonatal complications, including lower unscheduled caesarean sections, preterm deliveries, large-for-gestational age neonates, and NICU admissions, compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG).

The article explores how expanding access to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for individuals with type 2 diabetes—especially those not using insulin—can lead to improved clinical outcomes and reduced healthcare costs. It presents peer-led best practices and underscores the value of integrating CGM into primary care, supported by real-world evidence. It highlights some of the latest evidence highlighting CGM’s benefits in lowering emergency department visits and optimizing medication use, while advocating for broader coverage and streamlined access to diabetes technology.

Dexcom G7 was associated with significantly improved A1c at 3 and 6 months, reduced body weight and BMI at 3 months, and improved TIR, TAR, and mean glucose at months 2 through 6 (p<0.05). This evidence supports updated standards of care that recommend consideration of CGM use in people with T2D not on insulin.

Dexcom CGM is associated with a 14% reduction in the rate of CKD progression among adults with CKD using insulin over 3 years. At 3 years, 24.8% of Dexcom CGM users experienced CKD progression vs. 34.8% of CGM non-users. This study highlights the benefits of Dexcom CGM in reducing kidney disease progression in alignment with recent expert consensus statements supporting CGM use in individuals with CKD.

In a large national federal cohort, initiation of CGM was associated with lower mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using insulin. Risk for mortality was lower in CGM users, as were risks for all-cause hospitalization, cardiovascular events, and admissions for hyperglycemia. These findings suggest that CGM may offer benefits beyond glycemic control, even for patients with T2D receiving less intensive treatment.

This program explores how Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) technology addresses therapeutic inertia, enhances glycemic control, and its role in quality metrics. Panelists examine the evidence to support expanding CGM access to broader diabetes populations in alignment with the 2025 ADA Standards of Care. The program will focus on overcoming barriers to CGM adoption and improving access in diverse patient populations by addressing racial and ethnic disparities. Additionally, this program will evaluate CGM’s impact on reducing healthcare resource utilization and cost management strategies to improve patient outcomes.
