Sharing your diabetes related data with your healthcare professional
Your healthcare professional has invited you to share your diabetes related data with them on the RocheDiabetes Care Platform. There are two methods for sharing your data:
- Option 1 - using the mySugr® app
- Option 2 - directly within the RocheDiabetes Care Platform
Your healthcare professional will discuss these two options with you and will start the enroll process for the most appropriate method(s).
Why share your results with your healthcare team?
You don’t have to do diabetes alone, share your results with your healthcare team. Feel comfortable sharing your diabetes information, fears or worries. They are there to help you. Whether you decide to share your results using the mySugr Reports function, or seamlessly once connected to your healthcare professional’s system†, there’s plently in it for you.
No more paper logbooks
By using the Accu-Chek Instant meter and the mySugr app you don’t have to write down your blood sugar readings, so you can say goodbye to your paper logbooks as everything can be stored in one place... your smartphone.
Better information, better support1
Having access to your results before your appointment can help your healthcare professional to manage their time with you more effectively, for example, reviewing and adjusting your treatment where necessary. It may also provide you more time to discuss what is important to you.
