[Diabetes-Talk] Voice-enabled CGM benefits blind patients with diabetes

That's weird the way they come up with these decisions. In my case, with
Humana, it was just the opposite. They would cover Novolog but not Humalog.
So ridiculous.





Warmest regards

Do agree with you on that front.libre has been gaining  ground.  Libre with
alarts and alarms will even cove more ground and more insurance providers
will cove that over dexcom for low cost.  Bean counters control the lives of
diabetics. Its them aht decide if we can get x or y based on cost.i was just
dealing with this issue as they will not cover  nova log  rapid cacting
insulin, but will cover  humolog  rapid acting insulin, the cost difference
between the two is only $30 .   So that's the example that I am giving as it
relates to the bean counters  and insurance administrators at these
insurance companies.
