1. A method, comprising the steps of:
determining, by one or more processors of a reader device, whether a drug delivery device is compatible with a reader device based at least on data related to a configuration of the drug delivery device received by the reader device;
determining, by the one or more processors of the reader device, whether an integrated sensor and sensor electronics assembly are compatible with the reader device based at least on data related to a configuration of the integrated sensor and sensor electronics assembly received by the reader device;
processing, by the one or more processors of the reader device, data indicative of an analyte level of a user received from the integrated sensor and sensor electronics assembly in response to a determination that the integrated sensor and sensor electronics assembly are compatible with the reader device; and
displaying the processed data indicative of the analyte level of the user on the reader device.
