To solve the following problem: a need exists for a "pay-for-result" model in which a payor pays for only strips that are actually used in a diagnostic testing device and a medication delivery device.
A method, a device and a system for disease management are provided that employ diagnostic testing devices (e.g., blood glucose meters) and medication delivery devices (e.g., insulin delivery devices) for providing data to a repository in real-time and automatically. Repository data can be analyzed to determine such information as actual test strip use, patient health parameters outside prescribed ranges, testing and medication delivery compliance, patient profiles or stakeholders to receive promotional items or incentives, and so on. Connected meters and medication delivery devices and repository data analysis are also employed to associate a diagnostic test to a mealtime based on the timing of a therapeutic intervention performed by an individual.
