A biosensor inserter is configured to insert a biosensor. The biosensor inserter includes a push member including a receiver, a contact member translatable relative to the push member, and a trocar holder having a sheath configured to receive a trocar assembly including a trocar therein. The trocar holder is configured to be insertable into, and removable from, the receiver. Thus, an amount of medical waste can be minimized by discarding only the removable trocar holder and trocar assembly after use. System and method embodiments are provided.
