One method according to the present invention includes receiving data wirelessly from a medical device, transmitting the data to an intermediary device (such as a properly equipped mobile telephone or personal digital assistant), and formatting a message including the received data for transmission to a medical data server. The intermediary device includes software configured to receive the data and process the data into a format compatible with the medical data server. Once at the medical data server the information can be reviewed by a healthcare professional at a location remote to the patient. This method may be practiced automatically, either continuously or at set intervals, or may be initiated by someone utilizing the system (such as the patient or health care provider). The method preferably functions without the need for the patient to manually enter information into a device.
