[Diabetes-Talk] OmniPod5 iOS app question

[gmelconian619 at gmail.com]

I used byron health care. I will leave the link below  for you.its a amail order  company for diabetes supplies. I am in California. None of the  stupid  local big chain pharmacies have been able to  get the actual stuff approved through my insurance correctly.this is the only company on first attempt everything was approved  and everything shipped out on automated schedule.   Hope this helps you out.

Hello,
I am glad to hear this. I am thinking of asking my doctor to order this for me. I don't have an appointment till February but I might just send a message in mychart to ask. WHere do you get your supplies from?

Thanks,
Greg Wocher
