Effective June 30, 2026, Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) data can be integrated into Connect Care. Dexcom G7 CGM systems provide real-time glucose readings, trends, and alerts for patients managing diabetes, and regularly reviewing these insights are critical for informed clinical decision-making and proactive care. This milestone marks a significant step forward in leveraging digital health tools to enhance provider efficiency and improve patient outcomes.
How to Initiate Data Sharing
Patients will need both an active MyChart account and a Dexcom account to facilitate data integration. Diabetes care team members will ask for verbal consent from the patient to share their Dexcom CGM data to Connect Care. Once verbal consent is obtained, prescribers or diabetes care team members will place a "MyChart Dexcom" order in Connect Care to request sharing of Dexcom CGM data from patients. This order will trigger a secure message to the patient via MyChart, prompting the patient to acknowledge and confirm consent to share their Dexcom CGM data with their care team.
What You Will See
Once the patient provides consent through their Dexcom account, standardized Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) metrics will be recorded directly in a dedicated flowsheet in their chart, including: CGM Report Range (date), CGM Use (%), GMI (%), Average Glucose (mmol/L), Coefficient of Variation (%), Time in Range (%), Time Very High (%), Time High (%), Time Low (%), and Time Very Low (%). This data can be accessed in the Diabetes Synopsis activity or within the Diabetes Management Navigator under "CGM Trend", or directly within the "Remote Monitoring Data Collection" flowsheet.
This streamlined access to AGP data supports more personalized and timely diabetes management without the need to access third-party websites to review data, or manual data transcription into Connect Care.
