Validic Integrates Glucose Monitoring Data Directly Into EHR Clinical Workflows

Digital health company says it is now able to integrate continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data directly into EHR clinical workflows. 

This multi-device solution supports Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre portfolio within Epic and Oracle Health EHR systems, marking a significant leap forward in how healthcare providers access and utilize personal health data.

Historically, providers would need to log into separate portals or support different workflows for each CGM manufacturer to review the data from their patients. Additionally, Validic said, it was cumbersome to document CGM data and reports into the clinical workflow. The new integration simplifies the process, eliminating the need for manual data syncing processes, extra logins, and multiple portals. Clinicians can now view patient CGM data and Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) reports directly within the EHR patient chart. They can also save the report snapshot to the chart with a click of a button.

"This integration is a pivotal moment in diabetes care," said Drew Schiller, CEO of Validic, in a statement. "By bringing CGM data seamlessly into the clinical workflow, we're saving time for healthcare providers and we're enabling more informed, data-driven conversations with patients that can lead to better outcomes. This is the future of connected care, and we're proud to be at the forefront."

In a statement, Christy Limbers, vice president, physician enterprise quality & EPMO at Franciscan Ministries of our Lady Health System, emphasized the clinical impact of this integration: "Having CGM data readily available in our EHR workflow will be a game-changer for patient care. It allows us to make more timely and informed decisions, identify trends quickly, and ultimately provide better support to our patients managing diabetes. This kind of seamless data integration is crucial for the future of endocrinology and chronic disease management.”
