New Health Benefit Available: Livongo for Diabetes Program

MSU is now offering a new health care benefit – Livongo for Diabetes. The Livongo for Diabetes Program empowers individuals to make living with diabetes easier by providing a connected meter, unlimited strips, and coaching. Livongo is available to all benefits-eligible employees, their spouses, and dependents.

Once you register, Livongo will send you a welcome kit which includes its connected glucose meter, a lancing device, test strips, lancets, and a carrying case. Livongo gives you online access to blood glucose readings along with graphs and insights.

Benefits of the program:

  • More than a standard meter: The Livongo connected meter provides real-time tips and uploads readings.
  • Unlimited strips at no cost: You can get as many strips and lancets as you need with no hidden costs or copays. When your supplies are about to run out, Livongo ships more supplies, right to you.
  • Coaching anytime and anywhere: You can connect to a Livongo coach for one-on-one support by phone, email, text, or mobile app to help with questions about nutrition or lifestyle changes, and live interventions triggered by acute alerts.

Registration is fast and takes less than 10 minutes to sign up and start your profile. Registration for Livongo is now open and you can enroll at any time. Enrollment is not restricted to the MSU Open Enrollment season. If you have any questions about this program, visit the Livongo website or call Livongo Member Support at (800) 945-4355.
