"You only push technology in #T1Diabetes"
No, I speak more about it as traditionally #T1D has been the 'poorer cousin' in #NHS policy land.
So- here is some data around #T2Diabetes and #CGM access in line with @NICEComms NG 28
Maps are good for transparency.
Caveat:
Maybe an underestimate due to data drill focussing on basal-bolus
Data as per @DiabetesAudit
Country average: 60%
Note:
Areas WITHOUT a #T2D #CGM policy - as per data- (Happy to be corrected otherwise)
NG 28 came out in March 2022...
@kamleshkhunti@scelee1@NHSEngland@shaungreen969
Large observational study
Adults with T2 diabetes on insulin who use isCGM have a significantly โฌ๏ธ HbA1c and fewer hospital admissions for diabetes-related complications compared those who use traditional BGM

Professor Samuel Seidu, @scelee1@LDC_tweets on the need to measure, highlight and and address inequality in access to diabetes technology.
Stakeholders should be encouraged to advocate for and implement strategies that ensure equitable access to diabetes tech.
