A reusable analyte sensor site for use with a replaceable analyte sensor for determining a level of an analyte includes a site housing material and a resealable insertion site coupled to one end of the site housing material. Preferably, the site housing material is formed to have an interior cavity with an opening. The site housing material is selected to promote tissue ingrowth and vascularization, and yet be free of tissue ingress. Also, the site housing material permits the analyte to pass through the site housing material to the interior cavity to permit measurement by the replaceable analyte sensor. The resealable insertion site provides a for inserting the replaceable analyte sensor into the interior cavity of the site housing material.
