Experts discuss how the integration of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data into electronic health record (EHR) systems enhances clinical decision-making and care coordination, how primary care providers (PCPs) can leverage CGM data integration to provide more comprehensive diabetes care in the context of a shortage of endocrinologists, and the impact of varying coverage policies for CGM across different payers on patient access and outcomes, particularly for patients on basal insulin.
