January 12, 2018 By Sarah Faulkner

Dexcom, UnitedHealthcareUnitedHealth (NYSE:UNH) and Dexcom (NSDQ:DXCM) are joining forces to launch an individualized glucose management pilot program to help people with Type II diabetes manage their condition in real-time using wearable tech.

People using UnitedHealth’s Medicare Advantage plan are eligible to use Dexcom’s mobile continuous glucose monitoring system to track their blood sugar levels. Participating in the program also gives people access to personalized diabetes coaching and an activity tracker, the companies reported this week.
