Managing diabetes can be difficult and costly for patients. If not managed well, diabetes is likely to progress and lead to co-morbid conditions, such as high blood pressure and cholesterol. However, studies have shown that overall health can be improved (and medical costs can be significantly reduced) through better lifestyle management, medication adherence and control of A1C.
Beginning January 1, 2018, GW will offer CVS Health’s Transform Diabetes Care™, a total condition level management program designed to help participants improve health outcomes and lower pharmacy costs through three key components: medication adherence, A1C control and lifestyle management. Program features include:
- Highly personalized support and coaching from Certified Diabetes Educators
- Comprehensive diabetes visits at MinuteClinic locations at no out-of-pocket cost, including A1C checks
- A Livongo connected glucometer that uploads your blood glucose level readings to a secure online account and provides you with real-time personalized tips
- Unlimited test strips and lancets delivered to your door at no out-of-pocket cost
- Access to digital tools within the CVS Pharmacy mobile app, including medication refill reminders as well as the ability to refill prescriptions via two-way text messaging
With the Transform Diabetes Care program, patients can embark on a path to better health by keeping their diabetes under control while reducing their out-of-pocket costs.
Please note: Beginning January 1, 2018, diabetic medications and supplies must be filled through CVS Retail or CVS Mail Order.
