Mindful Monday | One Drop: Expanding the Reach of CDCES’s

A new company called One Drop is helping people self-manage their chronic conditions.

The program connects each participant with a dedicated Certified Diabetes Education Specialist or personal health coach to help them navigate and manage their diabetes.

One Drop offers 3 monthly memberships for either a Digital Membership, a supply membership, or a membership with both.

The Digital Membership includes goal setting, coaching, and tracking your healthcare goal progress. The supply membership includes items like blood glucose meters, a lancing device, 50 test strips, 10 lancets, and a carry case supplied every few months.

One Drop offers some interesting new features on glucose monitors that make it a bit unique in the marketplace. The subscription comes with a free app that provides real-time support from professionals and education on diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol.

One Drop is helping to give access to people who are not able to physically go and see a health care professional. Another unique feature of the app is it can give you an eight-hour glucose forecast based on your behavior and One Drop’s AI. One Drop’s monitors are now available in Walmart (for $69.95) and at select Apple retail locations.
