Hygieia can help Blue Cross members with Type 2 diabetes manage glucose levels

If Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan commercial or Medicare Plus BlueSM members with Type 2 diabetes need help managing their glucose levels, you can refer them to Hygieia.

Hygieia’s d-Nav® Insulin Management Program helps members achieve and maintain healthy A1c levels through virtual visits, telephone follow-ups and supplies by mail. This is especially important for members who are trying to manage their diabetes during times of crisis when they can’t leave their homes.

Hygieia also:

  • Provides patients with handheld devices that translate glucose readings into personalized recommended insulin doses
  • Teaches patients how to use the devices
  • Has clinical specialists follow up with patients to offer encouragement, correct usage errors and triage as needed
  • Sends the member back to you, the referring provider, for any issues that aren’t directly related to insulin management
  • Gives you access to detailed data on each member you refer, which is accessible through a secure portal

To refer Blue Cross members to Hygieia:

  • Email the member’s information to appointments@hygieia.com or fax it to 734‑249‑9650. Hygieia will reach out to the member to schedule an appointment.
  • You or the member can call or text 734‑369‑9984 to request an appointment.
