Patient Benefits of CGM

Whether your patient has type 1 or type 2 diabetes or is treated with multiple daily injections or insulin pump therapy, they can benefit from real-time CGM.

Who Can Benefit?

Dexcom CGM may be the right choice for:

patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes on mealtime insulin
patients on multiple daily injections (MDI) or an insulin pump
patients at risk of hypoglycemia
patients who may be unaware of their hypoglycemia
patients who want a better way to meet their glycemic goals
patients experiencing excessive glycemic variability
patients who may benefit from sharing their glucose data (e.g., children, older adults, etc.)

More Insight Than Monitoring Alone

Unlike a single reading from a blood glucose meter, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) provides dynamic information about the direction of glucose change, giving your patient continuous and timely feedback on nutrition, activity, and insulin requirements to help make informed diabetes treatment decisions. CGM is a powerful therapy management tool that can inform better diabetes treatment decisions, ultimately leading to tighter glycemic control than using a blood glucose meter alone.¹

I also agree to inform my patients that no claims may be submitted for any Sample Pack. I understand that these Samples include packs containing the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (“Dexcom G6”). Dexcom G6 is FDA cleared for use with a separate piece of durable medical equipment called a receiver.

Accordingly, the treating healthcare provider should exercise their clinical judgment, in consideration of the Dexcom G6 Instructions for Use, to only dispense this pack to a patient who (or whose authorized caregiver) (i) has reliable access to a compatible smart device and/or automated insulin delivery system, and (ii) is capable of safely using the products in this pack with their smart device, without the need for a separate dedicated receiver. Please note that if the patient of this pack is a Medicare beneficiary and the individual elects to continue using Dexcom G6 after this sample, the individual will need to obtain a medically necessary Dexcom receiver in order for Medicare coverage to be available. I understand that these Samples will not be provided to any patients that are beneficiaries under the Maine or Colorado state Medicaid programs. I understand that Dexcom will be tracking, and if necessary, reporting and may be subject to disclosure requirements with respect to the provision of these Samples.
