Privacy?

Great question. Currently we just store your risk score for state info.

The questions we ask are from this website: https://doihaveprediabetes.org/

Do you have anything specific we can do to address your concern? A privacy policy at the beginning maybe?

Nice! Would you recommend self-administered OTC blood glucose testing for a more definitive result?

Hi Jordan -- once we assess the user as high risk, we connect them to a A1C clinic to confirm the diagnosis. If the client is pre-diabetic, we can also refer them to a Diabetes Prevention Program, covered by Medi-Cal starting January 2018.
