Diabetes device management company Senseonics (SENS) continues to prove it’s product usage with its recent announcement of a collaboration with Cleveland’s University Hospitals Accountable Care Organization.
The care organization has begun offering the Eversense CGM System to its Medicare enrollees effective early September, 2023. The recent decision to use the Eversense CGM System in eligible patients with type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes on insulin shows the commitment of UHACO to facilitate optimal diabetes management for its enrollees.
This will allow organization staff to get experience with the insertion procedure so when the 180 day and 365 day sensors come they already know how to administer the insertion procedure.

For him to join the board on Senseonics makes me even more confident in the company’s future.
