I am on Medicare and I know they approved and presumably paid.

I have never seen a bill as high as that per month as Medicare pays a good
portion of the cost. I do have a co-pay and it is billed much less than that
of $100.00.

Are you on Medicare? If so, check into whether Medicare insurance is
covering a portion of the cost.

If you have other health insurance coverage, check to see if they will cover
a portion as well.

Hello all,

My practitioner had to lie to say I was on insulin, but I am finally getting
my Dexcom g7! My censors should arrive today. It is not cheap, costing about
$100 monthly, but I'll take it! Is that about how much most people pay? They
are sending the useless reader, too, which may have increased the cost.

I think that we should consider filing resolutions with both consumer
organizations next year to lobby for people who are not on insulin to have
access to these helpful devices.

Amy
