More information about ALR Technologies Inc. Currently, the Company is focused on diabetes and will expand its services to cover other chronic diseases anchored on verifiable data. The ALRT Diabetes Solution gives providers a platform for remote diabetes care, helping to minimize patient exposure to potential infections in clinical settings. The program tracks performance of all clinical activities to ensure best practices are followed. The overall goal is to optimize diabetes drug therapies to drive improved patient outcomes. ALRT also offers an algorithm to provide physician support for timely non-insulin medication advancements. This entire system is offered at a competitive price, comparable to blood glucose testing supplies alone from other manufacturers.ĪLR Technologies is a medical device company that developed the ALRT Diabetes Solution, a comprehensive approach to diabetes care that includes: an FDA-cleared and HIPAA compliant diabetes management system that collects data directly from blood glucose meters and continuous glucose monitoring devices a patent pending Predictive A1C algorithm to track treatment success between lab reports and an FDA-cleared Insulin Dosing Adjustment program.
The system includes patent pending patient management software, weekly patient reviews, FDA-cleared insulin dose adjustment suggestions, physician support for non-insulin therapy advancement, a blood glucose meter and testing supplies with an iOS and Android App for data uploading. The ALRT Diabetes Solution is an FDA-cleared, HIPAA-compliant, remote diabetes patient management system that leverages blood glucose data patterns to improve diabetes outcomes. With successful pilot results, ALRT’s objective is to have the ALRT Diabetes Solution included on these plans’ formularies for diabetes testing supplies. Secondary outcome measures will include patient adherence to blood glucose testing regimens and frequency of hypoglycemic episodes.Ĭentrus Health Kansas City clinics comprise a major provider network for the area’s largest health insurers, including BCBS of Kansas City, Aetna and others. The primary outcome measure will be A1C reduction, particularly below the 7.0% and 9.0% cut points, respectively. The study will determine the usefulness and feasibility of using this innovative technology in managing T2D patients.
An objective of the pilot is to determine the effectiveness of the ALRT Diabetes Solution in assisting physicians to address these targets.įor the pilot, the study patients’ blood glucose data will be analyzed during the 24-week treatment period using the ALRT Diabetes Solution remote patient management platform. Health plans also may penalize physicians financially when patients’ A1C levels exceed 9.0%. Rationale for these cut points includes the fact that many health plans financially incentivize physicians for keeping patients’ A1C levels below 7.0%, the standard target set forth by the American Diabetes Association. Patients will be divided into two cohorts: those with baseline A1C values of 7.0%-8.0%, and those with baseline A1C values of >9.0%. By providing quality remote diabetes care, physicians can keep their patients safe and well-managed while broadening their own array of reimbursable services.Ĭentrus Health Kansas City clinics will enroll patients with type 2 diabetes (“T2D”) who use insulin and non-insulin diabetes therapies. Patients with diabetes who catch the virus are among the most vulnerable for clinical complications, so preventing their exposure is paramount.
Remote diabetes patient management has gained much attention during the COVID-19 outbreak. The pilot will demonstrate the clinical usefulness of the ALRT Diabetes Solution in improving diabetes patient outcomes while reducing the cost of care. Four Centrus Health Kansas City primary care clinics will participate in the pilot: AdventHealth Medical Group, Clay-Platte Family Medicine Clinic, Northland Family Care and one other clinic. (“ALRT”) (OTCQB: ALRT), the diabetes management company, has signed agreements with clinics of Centrus Health Kansas City to conduct a clinical pilot.
