Benefits of the ALRT Diabetes Solution for Diabetes Singapore:

1. Members of Diabetes Singapore will enjoy a special price for the ALRT Diabetes Solution.
2. The Solution will process and analyze blood glucose data to assist Diabetes Singapore nurse educators in their coordination of care for members.
3. Diabetes Singapore will receive matching funds for donations from this collaboration to enhance coordination of care and counselling for their members.
4. Diabetes Singapore also will use donated and matching funds to give subsidies to patients who require financial assistance.
   

“We are thrilled to work with Diabetes Singapore to contain the rampant diabetes onslaught with next-generation technology to flatten the curve,” commented Sidney Chan, Chief Executive Officer of ALRT. “Singapore’s position as a center of influence in the massive Western Pacific markets will showcase the impact that the Solution will have in improving patients’ outcomes and lifestyles while containing overall healthcare costs for other organizations and governments in the region.”
