Hi all,

I'm an outsider here, who has benefitted from so many things being
accessible due  to U S  laws on that matter.

Are there any laws or regulations there, about making cell phone apps
accessible, as that may be an angle as the pump makers move toward
controlling the pump from a cell phone?

Paul from Australia.

Dar, very good question. Unfortunately, the reason nobody has taken these
companies to court is because there is no law mandating accessible medical
equipment. If there's a problem with a web site, a building, there are codes
one can readily quote if there's a violation. There just isn't anything for
accessible medical equipment. Of course, the question, why not? Good
question. Hasn't been done.
