My Diabetes Home – A Tool for Diabetes Management
My Diabetes Home is an online dashboard that allows patients to record, organize, and track personal diabetes information, including medications, daily blood sugars, A1c, blood pressure, weight, and more. Importantly, users can see automatic alerts on their blood glucose numbers if they are out of range.
One of the most actionable features is the Visit Optimizer tool, which takes all of the data gathered by My Diabetes Home and generates a comprehensive report to give to providers. It also lets you add specific health goals and questions to ask your provider – for more ideas about questions to ask your provider, you can view our patient guide at www.diaTribe.org/patientguide.
My Diabetes Home has announced the addition of new features in January 2014. These include adding the ability to schedule doctor appointments with custom reminders and coaching emails to help members get on the right track with their diabetes management. My Diabetes Home will also soon be launching a mobile version of their website, which will help its members record key information on-the-go and during their doctor visits. -NL
