June 9, 2025

In 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.

From Clinic to Innovation: Guiding Glooko’s Future in Diabetes Management

June 3, 2025

As healthcare providers, we find ourselves at a pivotal moment in diabetes management. Technological advances — from remote patient monitoring to artificial intelligence — have dramatically reshaped patient care. Yet, amid these innovations, a crucial element often remains overlooked: the voices of clinicians and people with diabetes. In my new expanded role as Chief Medical and Strategy Officer at Glooko, I am excited about the opportunity to transition from direct patient care into a broader role where I can continue to make a significant impact on diabetes management and improve the lives of people with diabetes. I believe my firsthand clinical experience positions me uniquely to guide Glooko’s innovation efforts, ensuring we build tools that genuinely meet the needs of clinicians and people with diabetes alike. In my nearly two decades as a pediatric endocrinologist, I’ve observed the profound potential—and the challenges—of integrating digital solutions into daily diabetes management. Clinicians routinely manage a complex array of tasks: reviewing glucose data from continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) or meters, adjusting insulin regimens, coaching patients on lifestyle, documenting clinical decisions, and coordinating across care teams. With a single person’s CGM device generating up to 288 data points per day, 1 clinicians managing numerous people with diabetes face overwhelming workloads. Individuals with diabetes echo similar concerns. Many describe data fatigue from constant management and analysis of their glucose levels. As one person stated, “The data is overwhelming; without clear insights and simpler ways to interpret it, it’s just noise.” Although this wealth of data is invaluable, it contributes significantly to clinician burnout, and burn out among people with diabetes. Alarmingly, half to two-thirds of clinicians experience burnout, driven largely by bureaucratic tasks, extended working hours, and the sheer volume of data management.2,3 Individuals with diabetes also report significant stress from managing their condition daily. Every glucose reading can feel like a pass or fail test. Effective technological integration could alleviate such emotional burdens by making data actionable, intuitive, and less intrusive. At Glooko, we recognize that technology alone is not sufficient—it must seamlessly integrate into clinician workflows. Clinicians offer essential insights into behaviors of individuals, adherence barriers, and preferences. Unfortunately, many digital diabetes solutions miss the mark due to inadequate clinician input, leading to underutilization—only about 40% see active clinical use.4 Glooko addresses this by ensuring clinician insights directly shape our technology, streamlining workflow integration through interoperability with electronic health records (EHRs). In a similar vein, simplicity and intuitive user experiences are paramount for people with diabetes to properly leverage diabetes management technologies. If the technology is complicated, it just becomes another barrier. Today, our connected care platform exemplifies this integrated approach, merging patient-generated data with clinical decision-making tools. Evidence demonstrates connected care significantly improves diabetes outcomes, with reductions in HbA1c levels of up to 1.5% and fewer hypoglycemic events.5 Glooko enables clinicians to swiftly identify high-risk trends and proactively manage care for people with diabetes. Tomorrow, AI-driven predictive analytics within Glooko could transform diabetes management by forecasting hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic events, facilitating timely, preventive interventions. Automating routine data analysis tasks can reduce clinicians’ documentation burdens by approximately 30%,6,7 significantly alleviating stress and freeing clinicians to focus more deeply on clinical interactions. For people with diabetes, this can provide a significant improvement in their overall diabetes management. I believe Glooko has immense potential, especially through advanced analytics and decision support. For instance, we could empower clinicians to shift from generalized treatment plans to highly personalized management strategies, grounded in timely data. Innovation that is guided by those on the frontlines of care — people with diabetes and their care providers — is critical for meaningful advancements that can truly move the needle in diabetes care. In my role, I am dedicated to ensuring our solutions enhance workflows, support better outcomes, and ultimately bring a human-centric approach to diabetes management. Together, we will define the future of diabetes care, directly addressing challenges clinicians face and improving the lives of those we treat. Here’s to a bright future ahead! 1. Speakman, ASHP. 2.

Helping Combat Clinician Burnout through EHR Integrations

May 22, 2025

  At 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.

Matteo Carli, Senior Director of Product at Glooko, shares our core mission: “Our goal is to bridge the gap between data and actionable care, simplifying diabetes management and enabling more personalized, proactive care.” A key area of passion for Matteo is our Population Health tools, which help healthcare teams proactively identify high-risk patients and deliver preventive care at scale, improving outcomes across communities. “What motivates me most is the belief that every improvement we make to the Glooko platform brings us closer to empowering people with diabetes and their care teams to achieve healthier, more fulfilling lives,” Matteo adds. “With each step forward, we’re not just refining a tool—we’re shaping a future where diabetes care is more connected, personalized, and transformative for everyone involved.” For Amanda Martin, Director of Product Design and a person with Type 1 Diabetes, the mission is personal: “I have the privilege of creating solutions that empower people with diabetes and the providers who care for them. As a person with Type 1 Diabetes, I love being part of a team dedicated to making meaningful experiences for patients to improve their care and transform their lives.” Amanda’s unique perspective drives her commitment to designing tools that improve daily diabetes management. “I love how our team brings together passion, empathy, and innovation to create experiences that truly make a difference for those with diabetes.” This Diabetes Awareness Month, we renew our commitment to reshaping the future of diabetes care—empowering patients, supporting providers, and improving lives.

Collaboration and Advocacy Define Hadley’s Experience Living with Type 1 Diabetes

November 10, 2022

In honor of American Diabetes Month, we’re sharing stories of Team Glooko members who are living with diabetes or helping a family member who is impacted by the chronic condition. Hadley Horton, a partner manager at Glooko, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in November of 2009. When she’s not staying active to keep her blood sugar stabilized, she acts as an advocate for people with diabetes. She believes those with diabetes understand and are aware what it means to live with the condition best. In the past, she’s mentored youth with diabetes and their peers to remind them they’ll lead a normal life just like she has. Based in Denver, Colorado, her role at our connected care company allows her to collaborate with teams across Glooko and our partner, Insulet, on how to expand and improve our digital health platform. “In order to have a successful partnership, you need to work with everyone from product developers to patients,” said Hadley. “My role has given me a new perspective into the digital therapeutics space, as well as understanding of the broader diabetes industry.” With her knowledge from working alongside partner companies, living with diabetes and using the Omnipod 5 in her daily life, she’s able to lend valuable insights into the continuous development of the Glooko app to enhance our product for users around the world.
