Glucose Monitoring Program for Soldiers: Improving Health and Readiness.

A new act establishes a five-year pilot program providing continuous glucose monitoring technology to selected service members. The aim is to improve their metabolic health and overall readiness for duty. Health data will be protected and used solely for program purposes and healthcare, without affecting discharge decisions.
Key points
Service members with health issues (e.g., prediabetes, type 2 diabetes without insulin, obesity) will receive free continuous glucose monitoring devices.
The program aims for early detection of health problems and improved soldier fitness, enhancing operational readiness.
Health data collected will be strictly protected and cannot be used for discharging service members.
The program will run for five years, with its effectiveness evaluated in reports to Congress.
