This assessment process seeks to support the delivery of the NHS Long-Term Plan for diabetes management through the following key objectives: a. Equitable access to the same products no matter where the patient lives; b. Minimum quality standards established in a fair and transparent way to better address patient needs; c. Recommendations aligned with NICE and the availability of CGM and intermittent monitors; d. Prescribing practices are joined up across primary and secondary care; and In January 2023, NHSE undertook an assessment to evaluate the clinical and cost effectiveness of meters, test strips and lancets. The assessment included: • Accuracy of glucose readings • Reliability and consistency of test results • Ease of use for patients and healthcare professionals • Compatibility with various blood glucose meters • Cost-effectiveness and overall value for money • Compliance with relevant regulatory standards Following the assessment and the identification of the preferred blood glucose and ketone meters, testing strips and lancets, Commissioning Recommendations were published in April 2023.
