Diabetes Management Using Continuous Glucose Monitors and Remote Patient Monitoring in Underserved Populations

Description

The goal of this 52 week prospective study is to learn whether a Diabetes Care Management Program using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and remotely monitoring (RPM) glucose readings can help improve glucose levels and diabetes related distress in individuals with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. The CGM and RPM are used as an adjunct to usual care. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does use of CGM \& RPM improve A1c? Does use of CGM \& RPM improve the percent of time spent with glucose levels between 70-180 mg/dl? Does the diabetes care management program improve diabetes related distress? Participants enrolled in the study will be wearing a CGM. Participants will be able to see the glucose readings from the CGM and see how their glucose level responds to food, physical activity, medications and daily life. The diabetes primary care team will be remotely monitoring the participant's glucose data from the CGM. They will reach out to the participant to make adjustments in treatment regimen as needed. Participants will answer a "Problem Areas in Diabetes"questionnaire that asks questions about diabetes related distress.
