PredictBGL is the first system ever to provide a points system covering more than just naive blood sugar results. Unlike others, we cover the full gamut of tests that people with diabetes perform.
We want to encourage healthy management practices for people with diabetes. PredictBGL awards points for good results, and also for activities that can help improve results. You can even earn points on high blood glucose values - provided they fit predictions - as they are expected, after all.
The following tables set out the points, and how they are calculated.
