MCT-Diabetes is a behavior modification tool that allows individuals with diabetes
and their care providers to collaborate and monitor glucose levels across the
Internet. The product facilitates collaboration, which improves the long-term
management of diabetes. The intuitive, easy-to-use software application provides an
opportunity for the patient to decide who (care providers, family members, and
friends) can have access to the patient's data and communicate with each other.
Patients who do not wish to share access with care providers can print reports and
graphs and take them to appointments for review.

MyCareTeam, Inc. recently received 510K Clearance from the United States Food & Drug
Administration (FDA) for MCT-Diabetes. The company pursued the rigorous
certification process in order to provide its consumer base with an enhanced
diabetes monitoring product that is certified by the FDA. MCT-Diabetes is one of the
first software-only diabetes management companies to receive FDA clearance in the
United States.
MCT-Diabetes is available directly from MyCareTeam on a monthly or annual
subscription membership basis. Visit the company's website at www.mycareteam.com for
