New ADA Guidelines for Blood Glucose Self-monitoring

New ADA Guidelines for Blood Glucose Self-monitoring:
"For patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who take multiple daily doses of insulin or are on pump therapy, the previous recommendation had been that these patients perform blood glucose self-monitoring "three or more times daily." Some payers had interpreted that to mean that three tests a day was sufficient for all patients, Dr. Richard Grant (Kaiser Permanente Division of Research, Oakland, CA), incoming chair of the ADA Professional Practice Committee, noted."
