2655 Jonah BI waited months for the insurance decision they said was coming any day now, looking good... and they decided to cover only persons 25 and up. I am 20 and out of luck. This would really have come in handy during my recent gallbladder surgery.ILBCBS- PPO
2656 Richard LiegeoisNumerous studies have demonstrated the benefits of tight BG control for diabetics. If you are insulin dependant, you need the trend information that only a CGM can provide to maintain tight control without endangering yourself and everyone else with a hypoglycemic episode. With multiple CGM vendors available, insurance companies should be working to provide this benefit to members just as they do with other medical benefits.CAAetna (not yet denied)

2659 Melissa GuyI have a son who is type 1 diabetic who was just dischaged from the hospital from having night time seizures and despartely needs a cgm and his insurance will not pay for it , but i guess they save money by paying for weeks of hospital admissions to the picu instead of paying for a monitoring device...???LALouisiana Medicaid

2661 Erica GillenwaterI have not yet applied for CGMS but would like to begin a family and believe my own life and the life of my child would be greatly improved with tighter control over my blood sugars. The peace of mind provided by knowing approximately what my sugar level is would eliminate "chasing" the sugars and over-correcting with insulin, a recipe for miscarriage.COI have not yet been denied.

2669 Andrea WrapeI would like to have this device to help monitor over-night lows while my husband travels extensively for his job. I have 2 daughters who I have sleeping in the bed with me to help me "catch" these lows and wake me up so I can treat. It is not fair that I must rely on my children who are under the age of 14 to help. Plus I am terrified of sleeping in the house alone. I want to be independent and healthy. I want to teadh my children this as well.TNBlue Cross/ Blue Shield of Alabama

2671 Darryl SenegalI have diabetes and currently suffering from hypoglycemic unawareness. This CGM would be the blessing of my lifetime...GAUnited Healthcare
2672 Martin TrombleyI am a type 1 diabetic, diagnosed 27 years ago. An insurance-covered CGM system would be extremely helpful to me, as a single male who has difficulty living alone; due to the potential for life threatening hypoglycemic attacks. This type of alert system would benefit in many aspects of daily life, when low sugar can easily sneak up with little to no warning. I also believe that economic laws of supply and demand would produce lower production costs and higher availability of such devices and supplies if we could somehow generate market momentum (a la insurance coverage).MII have not been turned down for insurance coverage, but I am in the process of selecting an insulin pump which would be much better equipped with a CGM as a monitoring option.
