Diabetes management program

The Board of Pensions partners with Teladoc Health to offer the Livongo diabetes management program to employees and their eligible family members enrolled in any of the three medical options.

When employees or their covered family members enroll in the Livongo diabetes management program, they receive the following at no cost:

• An advanced glucose meter ($200 value). This meter automatically uploads blood glucose readings to the member’s private account. The member receives a personalized message to help them make informed choices for their health. They can also view trends of past readings at any time.
• Unlimited test strips. Members get as many strips and lancets as they need with no copays, deductibles, or coinsurance. When more strips are needed, the member can simply tap the meter to reorder.
• Access to a health coach. Experienced coaches, all Certified Diabetes Educators, are available 24/7 to offer support and answer questions about blood glucose readings, nutrition, or lifestyle changes. Members also can schedule phone appointments or get expert advice by email or text message.

Diabetes is a health concern that millions of people in the United States face, according to the American Diabetes Association. This program will help your employees better manage their condition and their overall health.

Cost

There is no additional cost to employers for the Livongo by Teladoc Health diabetes management program. This benefit automatically is included when you offer the PPO, EPO, and/or the HDHP.
