I am very blessed, my insurance covers the Dexcom G6 with no co-pay.

Its not  that my endo does not want to  do that, its  the fact that  my
stupid insurance in their  way they have their stupid policies in place that
they wont fund it due to the fac that  they keep on telling me its not
covered due to  the fac that its a durable  equipment proticle and that I
have to  pay out of pocket for it if I really want to have the cgm. At close
to 900 for a three month supply  of Dexcom g6, I cant afford that compared
to the libre which cost about 210 for a three month supply. I wish that
these  cgm products wer affordable for those who did not have insurance and
had to  pay out of pocket could afford them and  that way had more
control over their diabetes management.  Hoping the   next gen cgm will be
more affordable, for all that g7 and what ever  version of libre are
competitively priced so that the consumer has choice over  the products if
they hav to pay out of pocket  for  them.
