Telehealth company Teladoc Health has launched an A1C at-home diabetes testing program for members of its Livongo diabetes management program.
A1C tests determine blood sugar levels and are used to diagnose diabetes and for diabetes care. Health solutions and services company LetsGetChecked will provide the A1C tests to Livongo members, according to the Aug. 10 Teladoc news release.
"At-home testing will not only help members better understand their risk, but better manage their conditions and live their healthiest lives on their own terms," U.S. Group Health President Kelly Bliss said. "For the more than 37 million people in the United States living with diabetes, this is a quick and effortless way for us to engage with members, at the moment they are managing their diabetes."
