What your diabetes provider does

More than a prescription. It's ongoing care from a provider who adjusts your type 2 diabetes care as your needs change.

Reviews your medications

Your provider reviews your medications and may prescribe a GLP‑1 medication when clinically right, based on your real numbers.

Reviews your glucose & labs

They watch your continuous readings and order the lab work that keeps your treatment safe and on track.

Answers you between visits

Message your care team any time — no more waiting months for a 15-minute appointment to ask one question.

Hi Margaret — your mornings have crept up a little this week. Let's lower your evening dose slightly. I'll give you a call at 2:00 to walk you through it.
Plan adjusted the same day — no office visit needed

Care that happens between visits

Most glucose monitors just show you a number. Yours sends every reading to a dedicated care team that spots trends, catches highs and lows, and recommends adjustments to your diabetes medication, so you're never managing diabetes alone.

  • We catch highs and lows early If your blood sugar starts trending the wrong way, your care team sees it and reaches out — often before you'd notice anything yourself.
  • Care between your visits Your readings let your care team recommend medication adjustments and answer questions any time — not just at a once-a-year checkup.
  • Nothing to log or report You never write down a number or remember to check in. Your glucose data is already with your care team, around the clock.

Lower numbers. Fewer worries.

Real results from MDWatch patients managing type 2 diabetes from home.

Since becoming a diabetic in 2001, I have always had to prick my finger several times a day to check my blood sugar. I hated it. I joined MDWatch because I wanted a new way to check my blood sugar. My favorite part of the program is the CGM device. Anytime I need to see my blood sugar all I have to do is check my phone. Since joining MDWatch, my A1c has dropped from 7.8 to 5.8.

A Anthony Verified patient A1c 7.85.8

I joined MDWatch because my primary care provider suggested this program to help patients better manage their diabetes from home. My favorite part has been learning what foods to eat and what not to eat, and when to eat. Prior to joining MDWatch, my blood sugar readings were only in range about 70% of the time. Today, my glucose readings are in range greater than 90% of the time.

M Mark Verified patient time in range 70%90%+

I joined MDWatch after my PCP tried to help me control my diabetes for 30 years. Since starting in January with the Dexcom, I’ve learned how to manage my blood sugar and weight effectively. The program’s education and support have been life-changing—I now understand what to eat and how to make healthier choices. MDWatch gives me the control I’ve always wanted over my health without feeling like I’m being told what to do. I’m off all diabetes meds within 3-4 months and feel more empowered than ever!

C Charles Verified patient all diabetes meds Off

I enrolled in MDWatch because I was tired of constantly pricking my fingers to check my blood sugar. My levels had been spiking dangerously high, and I even ended up in the hospital once. The Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) has been a game-changer, helping me see my levels instantly and make changes to keep them under control. Now, I feel healthier, happier, and more in control of my diabetes.

B Bonnie Verified patient finger pricks 0

I joined MDWatch after two hospitalizations due to dangerously low blood sugar, which scared both me and my wife. With the G7, I can set alerts, monitor my levels, and better understand how different foods affect my blood sugar. I feel more in control of my health, and the program has given me peace of mind.

M Marvin Verified patient

After hearing great things from others, I joined MDWatch and I’m so glad I did. My caretaker can easily access my vitals and communicate with my care team on my behalf, which has made everything so much simpler. The services are outstanding, and I feel much more comfortable at home knowing that a dedicated team of clinicians is monitoring my health. The best part for me is the software—it’s fantastic for tracking my health goals and seeing my vitals in real-time. I also really enjoy the monthly visits with my nurse practitioner. They make sure to keep my other doctors informed by sharing my vitals, which gives me peace of mind. Since joining MDWatch, I’ve made my health a bigger priority. I’m setting goals and working harder to achieve them, and it’s all thanks to the support I get from the program.

How MDWatch compares

Most diabetes care is reactive and once a year. Ours is continuous — a doctor, a medication plan, and a team that watches between visits.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions seniors ask us most.

Your monitor & setup

No. The monitor sends your readings on its own — no Wi-Fi, app, or smartphone required. We make sure everything is working before you start, and there is nothing to set up or log afterward.

That is completely fine — most of our patients are not. There is nothing to download or operate. A nurse helps you get started, the monitor does the rest on its own, and a real person is always a phone call away.

No. A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sits comfortably on your arm and reads your glucose around the clock — no daily finger sticks. You can see your numbers anytime, and your care team sees them too.

Your doctor & visits

Yes. You are cared for by a licensed U.S. team — a board-certified physician leads your plan, alongside nurse practitioners and nurses who get to know you by name.

Yes. Your care team reviews your readings between visits and recommends adjustments to your diabetes medication as your numbers change — so you are not waiting months for your next in-person appointment to make a change.

Yes. MDWatch works alongside your current care. Many patients use us for convenient, continuous diabetes management from home while keeping their other doctors.

Cost & coverage

Most patients pay $0. Medicare and most insurance plans cover the visits, the continuous glucose monitor, and diabetes care management for those who qualify. We verify your exact benefits for free, with no obligation, before anything starts.

For those who qualify, yes — Medicare and most insurance plans cover the care and the monitor. Coverage can vary by plan, so we check your exact benefits for free before you start.

Privacy & data

Yes. Your information is protected under HIPAA and handled by a licensed U.S. care team. We never sell your data, and it is used only to provide and coordinate your care.

Only you and your MDWatch care team — the licensed providers and nurses involved in your care. Your glucose data is not shared with anyone else without your permission.
