  • Diabetes Technology in the Primary Care Setting: An American Diabetes Association Scientific Statement

    by Osagie Ebekozien, Halis K. Akturk, Joseph A. Aloi, Natalie Bellini, Benjamin M. Bluml, Veronica J. Brady, Doreen Cassarino, Stephen C. Clement, Carla Demeterco-Berggren, Katherine Claire D’ONfro, et al.

    Most diabetes care is delivered in primary care, yet diabetes technologies remain inconsistently integrated. Workforce, training, time, data infrastructure, and insurance barriers contribute to inequitable access and adoption. This scientific statement provides evidence-informed recommendations for integrating diabetes technology into primary care practices. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) convened an interdisciplinary panel that met in person at the Diabetes Technology Meeting in October 2025. Panelists reviewed available evidence, published between 2020 and 2025, on diabetes technology implementation in primary care, with a focus on clear statements and recommendations addressing technology access and adoption, team-based workflows, continuous glucose monitoring, connected insulin delivery, and implementation barriers and opportunities. Virtual meetings were convened over the next 2 months to further develop and finalize statements and recommendations. Together, the ADA and interdisciplinary panel developed 16 consensus statements and 10 key recommendations. Diabetes technologies can be safely and effectively integrated into primary care practices when supported by standardized workflows, appropriate training, defined team roles, and access to specialty expertise. Equitable implementation also requires addressing coverage, affordability, digital literacy, broadband access, interoperability, and workforce development. Integrating diabetes technology into primary care is feasible and necessary to advance equitable, person-centered, data-informed care. Health systems, practices, payors, professional organizations, manufacturers, and policymakers should align resources, training, workflows, payment, and infrastructure to support sustainable implementation and improve outcomes for people with diabetes.
