I've lived in UK, Australia and Aoteroa/ New Zealand and (post glucomters) I've always been in control of my own insulin, albeit with advice from my team.   Your brother is in Canada like you?Edited to add.Sorry, that was off topic.As regards the time in range, hba1cs were brought in because they are cheap and easy to administer, but I would always believe bgs from a cgm over hba1cs given that some blood conditions and ethnicities can give falsely high or low hba1cs.  Mind you, I also check my cgm against a glucomter occasionally, and calibrate when necessary.</blockquote>
