First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a program that combines diabetes coaching, small financial rewards, and continuous glucose monitoring to help adults with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar management. 26 participants used a continuous glucose monitor and received motivational interviews and rewards for sticking to their treatment plan. The goal was to see if this approach increases time spent in a healthy blood sugar range and lowers A1C levels.
