About PTEC Home Diabetes Monitoring Programme

 

Following the success of the Home Blood Pressure (BP) Monitoring programme, The Primary Tech-Enhanced Care (PTEC) programme is expanding to provide telehealth support to patients with diabetes as well.

 

The PTEC Diabetes Monitoring (DM) Programme is being progressively rolled out in our polyclinics in NHG Polyclinics. The PTEC DM programme aims to enable patients with high or low blood sugar levels to better manage their conditions in the comfort of their home, with the help of simple technology and tele-consultations from the polyclinic.

 

Under this programme, you will be able to understand your condition better with regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels and get better support from your care team. With PTEC, you would be able to effectively manage your diabetes, receive support for lifestyle changes and track your progress towards better health.

 

 

 

Patient Care Journey

 

Patients enrolled under the PTEC Home Diabetes monitoring programme will measure their blood sugar at home using a blood glucose meter. The readings can be saved in the Health Discovery+ app. Patients can view all past readings in a chart that tracks changes in their condition over time. This monitoring allows high or low blood sugar readings to be flagged up for further action by the care provider. In addition, patients will receive timely and interactive advice, helpful reminders and notifications to take their blood sugar readings at least once a week, as well as receive care support when required.
