Guidelines-supported management of diabetes includes regular monitoring of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) with recommended testing frequencies of 2 to 4 times per year. Interruptions in HbA1c testing because of daily social or unusual societal circumstances, such as the stay-at-home orders associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, may impair diabetes management.We examined weekly HbA1c test volumes at a large national laboratory during the COVID-19 pandemic stay-at-home orders (in March and April 2020) to test the hypothesis that the pandemic has led to decreased HbA1c monitoring. Weekly test volumes beginning March 1, 2020 were compared to mean weekly test volumes in the previous 60 weeks (January 6, 2019–February 29, 2020) in 1.9 million patients with diabetes (defined as having an ICD-10 code for type 1 or 2 diabetes in 2017 and with at least 2 HbA1c tests in 2018). This Quest Diagnostics Health Trends™ study was deemed exempt by the Western Institutional Review Board.
