First IMO this is not a Dr play or even a USA play right now. It will be though eventually after rollout in other geographies

2nd it will not take the place of Dr follow ups

3rd quicker changes and adhearance to the care plan is a benefit for all

4th In Canada Pharmacist prescribe these meds for diabetes. IMO this is a pharmacy and Pharmacist play. This puts the drug maintenance and monitoring for this chronic disease right where thy pick up meds. They will see their Dr as needed I would imagine.

5th laws for Pharmacist in the US are changing to also be able to prescribe.

6th this is a global play so we have to thinks in terms of social medicine and reimbursements. I had a hard time getting out of USA mode but once you do it is easier to see what avenue this may take.

ALRT has Canadian, US and South American along with Asian connections. Think of global medicine not USA medicine IMO. Just google Canada diabetes and start poking around to see how it all works. Once you understand they give patients X amount of dollars for maintenance and supplies this platform makes total sense


This is from Sidney

The ALRT System is designed to do 2 things:

1. Make it easy for patients to understand how they are doing. Simply by sending the patients their A1C target with the latest Predictive A1C is a simple and easily understood way to let the patients know how they are doing.
2. A1C to Advance Therapy was put in place after we looked at the 2 published papers, as shown in the Problems with Diabetes Care video, on failure of Healthcare Providers to advance therapy on a timely basis.
