MINNEAPOLIS — Cardiocom, LLC, a telehealth disease management company, announced the launch of its innovative GlucoCom™ Blood Glucose Monitoring Products and AutoLink™ Diabetes Telemonitoring System.

Using advanced telehealth technology, blood glucose data is transmitted from the individual's GlucoCom™ Blood Glucose Monitor at home to the secure GlucoCom™ Diabetes Management Website. Diabetes patients can easily access custom reports that feature high and low alert limits, testing frequency and percent of normal readings by time of day. They can elect to share the information with their care providers.

"Multiple studies show that improving blood glucose control can impact the progression of diabetes complications and reduce health risks and costs," said Edward Kramper, M.D., Cardiocom's Chief Medical Officer. "Patients will be more engaged when they have an easy-to-use tool that supports their care plan and helps them communicate better with their physicians."

The advanced GlucoCom™ blood glucose meter features small 0.7 microliter blood sample size, rapid 7 second test results, Alternative Site Testing and storage of up to 450 test results. The easy-to-use GlucoCom™ meter connects in seconds to AutoLink™, a home telemonitoring device about the size of a checkbook. Data is transmitted automatically over a standard phone line to a website where it can be viewed only with a secure user ID and password. GlucoCom integrates into existing diabetes disease management programs for health plans, providers, home health agencies, pharmacies and durable medical equipment providers.

"The GlucoCom System expands Cardiocom's vision of providing high-quality, cost-effective telehealth products and integrated disease management solutions," said Daniel L. Cosentino, Cardiocom's President. "The company has demonstrated that daily monitoring of vital signs and symptoms combined with our patient management protocols and expert clinical nurses provide a significant reduction in cost and improvement in quality of care."
