About this course

In recent years, continuous glucose monitoring, flash glucose monitoring, and most recently implantable glucose monitoring have changed the way patients with diabetes monitor their glucose levels. This is an area where pharmacists can make a huge impact, and possibly could gain reimbursement for their services. Especially given the COVID-19 pandemic, utilizing continuous glucose monitors in the hospital setting has become a topic of research as well. Pharmacists need to be aware of these tools and how to utilize them. The activity will provide background information on the different devices available. The activity will then shift to focus on how to interpret the findings of the continuous glucose monitors. Pharmacists will be provided information on billing for the devices and services. Finally, pharmacists will be provided cases where they will apply what they learned during the activity. This self-paced course is available online through any device with internet access. There are unlimited test attempts and no time limit for completion. Credits will be reported automatically to CE Broker if your license information is entered properly in your profile.

I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
