An analyte measurement system (100, 400) comprising: a) a biosensor adapted to receive a fluid sample and provide analyte data corresponding to a analyte level of the fluid sample; b) a user interface adapted to provide a menu of functions to a user and successively receive a plurality of menu choices; c) a storage device holding data defining a first action criterion, the data that define the first action criterion including a menu choice and a requirement that the recorded analyte values be within a selected range during a selected time period, and a requirement that the recorded analyte values be within a second selected range during a second selected time period, the second selected range being a proper subset of the selected range and the second selected time period following after the selected time period, and wherein the data further defines a second action criterion, the data that define the second action criterion including a requirement that the first action criterion be satisfied; and d) a processor operatively connected to the user interface, the biosensor, and the storage device and configured to record the received menu choices, successively record a plurality of values of the analyte data, to analyze the recorded analyte values, and compare the menu choices and the analyte data to the first action criterion, so that when the stored menu choices and the analyte data satisfy the first action criterion, the processor automatically adds a first additional function to the menu of functions, and wherein the processor is further configured to compare the menu choices to the second action criterion, so that when the stored menu choices satisfy the second action criterion, the processor automatically adds a second additional function to the menu of functions. a) a biosensor adapted to receive a fluid sample and provide analyte data corresponding to a analyte level of the fluid sample; b) a user interface adapted to provide a menu of functions to a user and successively receive a plurality of menu choices; c) a storage device holding data defining a first action criterion, the data that define the first action criterion including a menu choice and a requirement that the recorded analyte values be within a selected range during a selected time period, and a requirement that the recorded analyte values be within a second selected range during a second selected time period, the second selected range being a proper subset of the selected range and the second selected time period following after the selected time period, and wherein the data further defines a second action criterion, the data that define the second action criterion including a requirement that the first action criterion be satisfied; and d) a processor operatively connected to the user interface, the biosensor, and the storage device and configured to record the received menu choices, successively record a plurality of values of the analyte data, to analyze the recorded analyte values, and compare the menu choices and the analyte data to the first action criterion, so that when the stored menu choices and the analyte data satisfy the first action criterion, the processor automatically adds a first additional function to the menu of functions, and wherein the processor is further configured to compare the menu choices to the second action criterion, so that when the stored menu choices satisfy the second action criterion, the processor automatically adds a second additional function to the menu of functions.
