Yes I would go threw the nurse who said she didn't know anything about 
this, how to teach it or anything.
Before I set up anything, I want to make sure we can cover our part.
Yes I am sure all pharmacies with in the next few months.

>> Hi,

>> The Dexcom 6 sensors are good for only 10-days. The transmitters only last
>> 30-days. You do not need to use the receiver if you download the app to
> your
>> smart-phone. I have doubts that Walgreens covers these but worthy of your
>> checking this a few times. Express Scripts covers Dexcom and they deliver.
>> Remember, this is a Medicare part B product and you will pay 20% of the
>> cost. I believe your cost every 90-days may be more than $100 for your
>> 90-day supply. Remember to order your over-lay patches when you order your
>> supplies. These are of no charge or free and they do help the dexcom stay
> in
>> place through showers for example.

>> Best of luck,

>> Rick

>> I sure couldn't pay $400 every month, if a cencer lasts a week.
