Abstract

Introduction: The first meeting of the Integration of Continuous Glucose Monitor Data into the Electronic Health Record (iCoDE) project, organized by Diabetes Technology Society, took place virtually on January 27, 2022. Methods: Clinicians, government officials, data aggregators, attorneys, and standards experts spoke in panels and breakout groups. Three themes were covered: 1) why digital health data integration into the electronic health record (EHR) is needed, 2) what integrated continuously monitored glucose data will look like, and 3) how this process can be achieved in a way that will satisfy clinicians, healthcare organizations, and regulatory experts. Results: The meeting themes were addressed within eight sessions: 1) What Do Inpatient Clinicians Want to See With Integration of CGM Data into the EHR?, 2) What Do Outpatient Clinicians Want to See With Integration of CGM Data into the EHR?, 3) Why Are Data Standards and Guidances Useful?, 4) What Value Can Data Integration Services Add?, 5) What Are Examples of Successful Integration?, 6) Which Privacy, Security, and Regulatory Issues Must Be Addressed to Integrate CGM Data into the EHR?, 7) Breakout Group Discussions, and 8) Presentation of Breakout Group Ideas. Conclusions: Creation of data standards and workflow guidance are necessary components of the Integration of Continuous Glucose Monitor Data into the Electronic Health Record (iCoDE) standard project. This meeting, which launched iCoDE, will be followed by a set of working group meetings intended to create the needed standard.
