[Diabetes-Talk] Medicare revised Dexcom policy.

[Joy Stigile]

Hi Gary,
Veronica mentioned I thought to this list but, it might have been just to me
that you can only use the G6 sensors for 10 days.  The G6 cannot be pushed
for 2 or 3 extra days like the G5.  At least the 1 month of sensors all have
the same code number.  Hopefully soon they will make it so that we will not
need to enter this code every month and make it like blood glucose strips.
Where they are all calibrated to the same code.
Warmly, Joy

Heres my question.with the new g6 sensors and transmitters.does one have
that choice of doing  eh regular caliberation method like the g5 or they
have to use the code that is going to be inputted  every time from reading
the manual on g6.that will be a pain for a lot of us who don't want to deal
with all these hastles as we have a lot to deal with these sort of
issues.also can one use the g6 senssor for more then   10days or that will
not be possible as you can currently do with the  g5 senssor getting   it to
go for more then 7 days.just wondering about tthese and if  some one could
answer them as promptly as possible.

Good morning,
I checked with Dexcom regarding the same question, and they said no.
