Using continuous glucose monitoring to measure and improve quality metrics: Updates on the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set 2024 Glucose Management Indicator measure.

Value-based diabetes care is a proactive approach to providing quality care to individuals with diabetes. This approach focuses on improving clinical outcomes rather than the volume of services provided. Implementation of value-based diabetes care requires an established set of standardized quality measures against which all stakeholders can assess and benchmark their performance. The National Committee for Quality Assurance recently added the Glucose Management Indicator to its Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set. The Glucose Management Indicator can be used as a measure of glucose control. This article discusses the benefits of value-based care, the importance of diabetes quality measures, and how the rapidly increasing adoption of continuous glucose monitoring is impacting these measures while improving the lives of individuals with diabetes.
