Things to Know about activity trackers

Fitness trackers, like Garmin, Google, Samsung, Xiaomi watches, are not typically considered medical devices and are not eligible for HSA/FSA funds. However, you may be able to purchase a fitness tracker if a doctor provides a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN). An LMN is a formal letter that explains your diagnosis and treatment plan.

Dexcom (G6 or G7): By using third-party apps like Nightscout, you can set up a widget that sends Dexcom glucose data to Garmin Connect. This allows you to display your glucose readings.

Freestyle Libre: You can also use Nightscout to create a widget that integrates Freestyle Libre data with Garmin Connect, enabling you to view your glucose levels.
