Techniques are described for wirelessly charging a wearable or implantable medical device, such as a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and/or an insulin pump. In some examples, the medical device includes: a rechargeable battery; a receiving antenna configured to wirelessly receive electrical power from a transmission antenna; charging circuitry configured to recharge the rechargeable battery using the electrical power received by the receiving antenna; and one or more processors configured to: determine a relative proximity of the medical device to a body of a patient; determine, based at least in part on the relative proximity, a tuning for the receiving antenna; and cause the receiving antenna to be tuned according to the determined tuning.

Patient monitoring systems and related medical devices and methods are provided. One method involves obtaining historical usage data associated with a patient for a plurality of potential site locations for a medical device, classifying one or more site locations of the plurality of potential site locations into a viable group of potential site locations for the patient based at least in part on the historical usage data, and providing, at a client device, graphical indicia of the one or more site locations classified into the viable group of potential site locations.
