Transforming Diabetes Care in the United Kingdom: Shaping the Future through Technology, Data, and Partnerships
June 9, 2025In the United Kingdom, diabetes technology has rapidly advanced over the past two decades, with platforms like Glooko playing a central role in simplifying care and management. In honor of Diabetes Week U.K. (9 June to 15), we’re taking a look at the state of diabetes, technology designed to better manage the condition, and the outlook on the evolution of diabetes care and technology. The State of Diabetes in the United Kingdom Diabetes is a significant public health concern in the U.K. According to Diabetes U.K., more than 5.8 million people are currently living with the condition. Of these, approximately 4.6 million have been diagnosed and an estimated 1.3 million people may be living with undiagnosed Type 2 diabetes. Of those diagnosed with diabetes in the U.K., Type 2 diabetes accounts for approximately 90% of cases. While risk factors for Type 1 diabetes include family history and the presence of other autoimmune conditions, Type 2 diabetes risk is heightened obesity, family history, a history of gestational diabetes, specific medications, and other factors. To address the growing prevalence of diabetes and support those affected, the National Health Service (NHS) offers various education programs aimed at empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to manage their diabetes effectively, improve health outcomes, and reduce the risk of complications. For individuals with Type 2 diabetes, programs like DESMOND (Diabetes Education and Self-Management for Ongoing and Newly Diagnosed) and the X-PERT Diabetes Programme provide education on managing the condition through lifestyle changes and self-monitoring. For those with Type 1 diabetes, the DAFNE (Dose Adjustment For Normal Eating) program offers guidance on insulin management and dietary considerations and Digibete helps young people, families, and communities better manage Type 1 diabetes. Additionally, the VICTOR program is designed for adults with Type 2 diabetes who are on insulin therapy and focuses on adjusting insulin doses in response to routine changes. Diabetes Technology Today In the U.K., diabetes technology is advancing quickly with Glooko helping streamline data management across compatible diabetes and health monitoring devices, including: Hybrid closed loop (HCL) systems, which combine continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with insulin pumps to automatically adjust insulin delivery based on real-time data. Devices like Tandem t:slim X2 require cable downloads, while mylife Loop powered by CamAPS® FX and Omnipod® 5 use cloud-to-cloud integration. CGMs provide glucose trends and alerts and are often compatible with pumps and cloud platforms. Abbott FreeStyle Libre CGMs data can be seen within Glooko through the upload of data from HCL-compatible insulin pumps. Fitness and health monitoring apps can track steps, weight, and blood pressure. Smart pens and connected pens allow for remote or in-clinic dose tracking. Transforming Diabetes Care in the United Kingdom with Glooko Across the country, more than 85,000 people living with diabetes use Glooko’s digital health platform to manage their diabetes and more than 500 clinics are using Glooko to provide better care to their patients.* Through our data*, we identified key metrics for time in range for people with Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes in the U.K. using Glooko during 2024. Type Time In Range (TIR) | 3.9-10 mmol/l Time in Tight Range (TITR) | 3.9-7.8 mmol/l Type 1 Diabetes 64% 41% Type 2 Diabetes 58% 34% Gestational Diabetes 74% 50% Today, there is an increased interest in TITR and TIR as a result of the recent technology available for managing diabetes. The Glooko diabetes data management platform helps healthcare providers monitor TIR and TITR to improve glycemic outcomes for people living with diabetes, bringing data from multiple devices into one platform with comprehensive charts and graphs. It ensures consistent data access — even without connected devices — and meets high standards for data protection, including GDPR compliance, to support safe, effective, and standardised diabetes care. The Future of Diabetes Care in the United Kingdom The future of diabetes care in the U.K. lies in advancing technology and deeper collaboration. Recent key developments include moving towards fully closed loop systems, integrating AI-enabled personalized insights, and aligning diabetes management with weight loss medications. Continued innovation will help provide more tailored, effective treatment options for people living with diabetes. Progress also depends on strong partnerships with leading diabetes organisations like the Diabetes Technology Network (DTN-UK) and Diabetes National Networking Forums (NNF).

Helping Combat Clinician Burnout through EHR Integrations
May 22, 2025At Glooko, we empower healthcare providers with the tools and insights they need to make informed decisions quickly and easily to improve the health outcomes of their patients living with diabetes. With nearly half of physicians reporting at least one burnout symptom in a recent study from the American Medical Association, it’s critical we make diabetes data management simpler to not overburden those providing care. That’s why the Glooko platform integrates with leading electronic health record (EHR) systems in the U.S., including Epic, Oracle Health, MEDITECH, Greenway Health, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, and AthenaHealth, making our diabetes management platform seamlessly and securely available within this critical healthcare technology and eliminating the need to platform switch. Why EHR Integrations Matter Diabetes care is complex, and healthcare providers face the challenge of managing patient data across multiple systems. In an era where time is precious and clinicians are already spending much of their time on administrative tasks, clinicians need timely access to the most relevant health data without the inefficiencies of navigating multiple data platforms. By integrating Glooko into EHRs, we streamline how healthcare providers access diabetes data, enabling them to provide the highest quality care. Our integrations provide clinicians and care teams with immediate access to comprehensive data from more than 200 diabetes and health monitoring devices used by their patients, eliminating the need for additional logins and manual data entry by people living with diabetes each day. EHR integrations not only optimize existing systems, but they also have the potential to enhance clinical decision-making by giving clinicians the full picture of a person’s health. It empowers them to make faster, more informed treatment decisions. That’s why health systems spend $2.5 million to $1.2 billion on EHR integrations each year. They’re powerful and their care teams can reap the benefits of reduced documentation burden. How It Works By leveraging SMART on FHIR technology and HL7, standard interoperability frameworks, Glooko integrates with existing EHR systems at hospitals and health systems. Healthcare providers can then access patients’ timely glucose data, medication logs, activity levels, food intake, and much more without leaving the EHR. The integrations support healthcare systems by offering a single, unified view of a person’s diabetes information, all while ensuring secure, HIPAA-compliant data exchange. The technology is designed to streamline workflows, making it easier for clinicians to focus on what truly matters: providing quality care for their patients. A Step Toward the Future of Diabetes Care Following the COVID-19 pandemic, clinical teams who provide care to the more than 38 million people in the U.S. living with diabetes have greatly declined in number, furthering the urgent need for seamless, data-driven solutions to help reduce administrative burdens and workloads that drive burnout. Since 2022, more than 138,000 nurses left the workforce due to stress, burnout, and retirement. New data from the NCSBN reveals almost 40% of nurses intend to leave the workforce by 2029, leaving the remaining time-pressed nurses to provide care to an already large patient population. Based on a recent GoodRx study, more than 70% of U.S. counties don’t have an endocrinologist and the number of trained endocrinologists is declining, meaning primary care providers must be knowledgeable in diabetes management and shoulder the workload. There is a significant shortfall of certified diabetes care and education specialists (CDCES), impacting diabetes care quality. In the U.S., there are about 19,500 diabetes educators — roughly 1 CDCES per 1,000 individuals with diabetes. An additional 35,000 educators would be required to meet the current demands of patients in the U.S. alone, furthering the workload burden. And the burnout by clinicians and care teams is only going to grow greater as 98 million American adults have prediabetes, according to the CDC. By optimizing and integrating with leading EHR systems, Glooko is taking a significant step forward in transforming diabetes management and reducing extra steps taken by healthcare providers to improve the quality of care. Our integrations help improve workflows, limit platform switching, simplify clinical decision-making, and support better outcomes for both healthcare providers and people with diabetes. These integrations represent our ongoing commitment to delivering cutting-edge, interoperable solutions that empower both clinical teams and patients in making diabetes easier to manage. Ready to Learn More? Healthcare providers and hospital systems can access EHR integrations by reaching out to our dedicated team for a demo. With robust support from our dedicated team, some integrations, like with Epic, can be up and running within a weeks, making it easier than ever to take advantage of the benefits Glooko has to offer.

How Glooko is Transforming Diabetes Care: My First Six Months as CEO
April 4, 2025Over the past several months since stepping into the role of CEO at Glooko, I’ve been reflecting on the incredible progress we’ve made, and the immense opportunities that lie ahead. Each day has reaffirmed my belief that our mission to transform diabetes care is both urgent and achievable. I’m more energized than ever to guide Glooko toward a future where we deliver an even greater impact for people with diabetes and those who care for them. When I think about the future of diabetes care, one word comes to mind: transformation. Across the globe, health systems, clinicians, and people living with diabetes are looking for a holistic approach, one that brings together cutting-edge technology, patient-centric insights, and secure, scalable solutions. At Glooko, we’ve made it our mission to deliver exactly that. Our Vision: Transforming Diabetes Care We believe in transforming diabetes care by making it simpler, more connected, and fundamentally centered on people with diabetes. This vision underpins every decision we make, whether we’re enhancing our platform’s EHR integration, partnering with global device manufacturers, or expanding our footprint in new markets. Our Mission: Simplifying Care and Strengthening Connections At Glooko, we say: “We simplify care, strengthen connections, and together create a brighter future for people living with diabetes, healthcare providers, and caregivers.” Simplify Care We hear time and again about fragmented workflows and siloed data, forcing providers and patients to juggle multiple device platforms (mobile and web), apps, and logins. Our platform intends to change this, meaning clinicians can potentially spend less time on administrative tasks and more time where they’re needed most: caring for patients and focused on improving outcomes. Strengthen Connections We also see the power of community and shared decision-making. Through Glooko, patients, caregivers, and healthcare teams can collaborate more effectively, share real-time data, and gain insights that drive meaningful change in care plans. We aim to reduce the cognitive burden of diabetes data and decision making. In my view, these are the five biggest differentiators that make Glooko stand out: Patient First Mindset: Everything we do revolves around putting patients first. We collaborate closely with clinicians, caregivers, and people living with diabetes to ensure our technology meets real-world needs. Commitment to Quality and Security: From ISO 27001 to HiTrust and SOC 2 Type 2 certifications, our platform is backed by enterprise-grade security and rigorously tested reliability. We understand that healthcare data is precious and that trust is earned through quality. Innovation That Matters: Our platform is more than a “data upload tool.” It’s an engine designed to support clinical decision making. Whether it’s EHR interoperability or automated patient nudges, we constantly push boundaries to develop meaningful solutions that scale globally. High-Performance Culture: Within the company, we’re building a talented, global team that challenges the status quo. This energy fuels our drive to expand into new markets, partner with industry leaders, and improve access to diabetes care around the world. Better Together: Collaboration is in our DNA, and that includes partnerships with device manufacturers, healthcare providers and hospital systems. By joining forces with stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem, we have the opportunity to create value that benefits everyone, especially people living with diabetes. Scaling for the Future Our work has already touched millions of lives, but we’re just getting started. With rising rates of diabetes worldwide, the need for an integrated, secure, and human-centered solution has never been greater. That’s why we’re investing in global expansion, forging new alliances, and refining our platform to make sense of the high volume of data in diabetes care. Scaling effectively also means staying true to our roots. Our commitment to patient outcomes, uncompromising quality, and secure innovation will remain the bedrock of Glooko’s growth. As we continue to expand, our North Star will always be the same: transforming diabetes care on a global scale and making diabetes easier to manage for everyone in the diabetes care ecosystem. A Commitment to People Living with Diabetes, Above All Behind every data point or device upload is a person managing a complex, life-altering condition. We never lose sight of that human element. As Glooko grows, our Patients First value continues to guide us toward solutions that truly make a difference, reducing clinical burdens, improving outcomes, and helping people with diabetes live fuller, healthier lives.
