Diabetes Care Programme: Real Doctors and CGM, One Yearly Payment

Our global diabetes care programme gives you an endocrinologist-led team and your own continuous glucose monitor for one predictable annual payment, with no insurance required. It is designed to help people with type 2 diabetes lower their A1c and, where possible, reach remission — wherever they live. Remission is not a cure, and results vary, but access to structured, evidence-based care should not depend on your postcode or your insurer.

Care that travels with you

Diabetes care has traditionally depended on where you live and what insurance you hold, which leaves millions of people with high glucose and little structured support. This programme is built to be available across regions, coordinating remote clinical oversight, CGM data and coaching so that geography is not a barrier to good care. Culturally relevant meal guidance, drawn from many cuisines, means the plan fits your own kitchen rather than a generic Western template, which is a large part of why people are able to stick with it.

What one yearly payment includes

The programme brings the elements the evidence supports into a single package rather than leaving you to assemble them piecemeal.

  • An endocrinologist-supervised care team
  • Your own CGM and hands-on help interpreting the data
  • A structured, personalised plan to lower your A1c
  • Culturally relevant meal planning and coaching
  • Trajectory tracking and safe, clinician-led medication review

Pricing is region-specific, so see current pricing on the programme page. The model is deliberately one annual payment rather than per-visit billing, so your cost is predictable and you are never discouraged from reaching out to your team when you need them. That matters, because engagement is one of the strongest predictors of success.

No insurance required

You do not need insurance to join, and this is central to the programme's purpose. It matters most for the many people who are uninsured, underinsured, or whose plans do not cover CGM or structured lifestyle care at all. Approximate retail CGM options such as Libre, Dexcom, Stelo and Lingo have already made monitoring more accessible on their own; the programme wraps clinical support, culturally relevant nutrition and trajectory tracking around that access so the sensor becomes part of a coherent plan rather than another gadget.

Built on published evidence

The programme is modelled on the structure of the strongest trials in the field: DiRECT (Lancet, 2018; 2019) for structured weight management and remission, Virta Health (2019) for supervised carbohydrate reduction, the Diabetes Prevention Program for lifestyle-driven risk reduction, and Look AHEAD for intensive lifestyle change in established diabetes. We track your own outcomes against these benchmarks rather than quoting in-house numbers that could not describe your individual situation.

Who it is for

The programme is for adults with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes who want structured, medically supervised care and a predictable cost. People earlier in the disease have the best chance of remission, while those later in the disease still benefit from better control, more time in range, and fewer complications. Type 1 diabetes cannot be reversed by lifestyle, but CGM and coaching still support day-to-day control, so the tools remain valuable.

How remote care actually works

Remote does not mean impersonal. Your CGM streams data that your care team reviews, your labs are ordered locally and shared securely, and your coaching and clinical check-ins happen on a schedule that fits your life. The metabolic model turns all of this into a clear picture of where you are heading, so conversations with your team are grounded in your real data rather than a hurried recollection of the past few weeks. For many people this is more attentive than the traditional model of a brief appointment every few months.

Predictable cost, no surprises

One of the quiet barriers to good diabetes care is unpredictable cost, which makes people ration their contact with clinicians exactly when they need it most. A single annual payment removes that friction: once you are in, reaching out to your team, reviewing your data, and adjusting your plan carry no extra charge. External costs such as sensors are separate and vary by device and region, but the core of your care is covered by one predictable payment. See current pricing on the programme page for your region.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the programme really available globally?

It is built for cross-region availability through remote clinical oversight and CGM. Check the programme page for current coverage in your area before you join.

What does "one yearly payment" mean?

You pay once for the year rather than per visit, so there are no surprise per-appointment charges. Pricing is region-specific — see current pricing on the programme page.

Do I need a referral or insurance?

No. The programme is open to anyone and does not require insurance or a referral to get started.

Will a real endocrinologist oversee my care?

Yes. Care is led by an endocrinologist-supervised team, and any medication change is clinician-directed rather than automated.
