Harnessing Digital Diabetes Technology for Successful Insulin Management: An Integrated Approach

Insulin remains essential in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), yet barriers often delay its initiation and intensification. This 60-minute virtual CME session, led by expert faculty, will explore strategies to overcome these challenges and optimize insulin use in clinical practice.

The session will also examine how digital health technologies can support self-management, improve insulin adherence, increase time in range (TIR), and reduce hypoglycemia. Faculty will further discuss the emerging role of once-weekly insulins and how technology can help integrate these therapies into personalized care.
