Has Access to CGM Coverage Improved with CMS updates? We want to hear from you!

Yesterday, we shared our blog about the CMS Updates For CGM Coverage. These updates made us feel hopeful that people with diabetes would have fewer barriers and improved access to CGM devices.

After sharing this post, members of our community let us know that although CMS guidelines have been relaxed in writing, this hasn’t translated into better access on the ground.

What is your experience with accessing CGMs for people with diabetes?

We are hoping to open up a dialogue around this topic and hear from our community members about how these guidelines apply to real-life situations.

If you have information to share, please fill out our brief survey by clicking here.

We will send a follow-up post next week with updates.
