Is a team of Diabetes specialist for GD necessary?

F
I failed my one hour gestational diabetes test with a result of 199. Very high! My doc wants me to start being monitored by a specialist. Is this really necessary? What do they actually do that's different from me monitoring sugar myself and living a more cautious life? This could get expensive for me.
