Abstract

We examined the relationship between medication changes, engagement with a digital health solution (BlueStar®, Welldoc, Inc.), and blood glucose control among 252 users of this solution with Type 2 diabetes. We found that frequent use of the solution enhanced the effect of medication changes on blood glucose control.
