The digital health company says it can now integrate continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data directly into clinical EHR workflows.
This multi-device solution supports Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre portfolio within Epic and Oracle Health EHR systems, marking a major advancement in how healthcare providers access and use personal health data.
Historically, providers would have to log into separate portals or support different workflows for each CGM manufacturer to review their patient data. Additionally, Validic said, it was cumbersome to document CGM data and reports in clinical workflow. The new integration simplifies the process, eliminating the need for manual data synchronization processes, additional logins, and multiple portals. Clinicians can now view patient CGM data and ambulatory glucose profile (AGP) reports directly within the EHR patient record. They can also save the report snapshot to the chart with the click of a button.
“This integration is a pivotal moment in diabetes care,” Drew Schiller, CEO of Validic, said in a statement. “By seamlessly incorporating CGM data into clinical workflow, we are saving healthcare providers time and enabling more informed, data-driven conversations with patients that can lead to better outcomes. This is the future of connected care, and we are proud to be at the forefront.”
In a statement, Christy Limbers, vice president of medical business quality and EPMO at Franciscan Ministries of Our Lady Health System, emphasized the clinical impact of this integration: “Having CGM data available in our EHR workflow will be a game-changer for “It allows us to make more timely and informed decisions, identify trends quickly, and ultimately better support our patients managing diabetes. “This type of seamless data integration is crucial for the future of endocrinology and chronic disease management.”
