Diabetes Technology is Not Just for Kids!

The Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is indicated for the widest age range of CGM users (ages 2 years and older), and for good reason. More than a quarter of Medicare-aged US adults have diabetes—and that number is expected to increase in the coming decades.1

In this webinar we will dive deeper into the benefits of real-time CGM (RT-CGM) for this growing patient population and how it aligns with recommendations presented within the ADA Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes and the AACE Clinical Practice Guidelines.2,3

We’ll also discuss how RT-CGM systems, like Dexcom G6, can help insulin-using patients with diabetes in that age group overcome four key barriers to technology use—and much more.

For your convenience, video chapters are outlined below:
