ABCD DTN Principles for CGM Choice in HCL systems: Clinical Need, Cost-Effectiveness, and Patient Safety

The use of HCL may enable provision of different CGM options.

It is sensible that the lowest cost option should be the default choice, but where this does not meet an individual’s requirements an alternative should be available.
