1. It is not yet covered by any insurance.
2. I have the DexCom, not the Medtronic one.
3. You still have to check through finger pricking (although people will
tend to forget and rely on the CGMS). When I'm low the Monitor will always
tell me a lower number then the glucose meter, and when I'm high it will
give me a higher reading, funny. But it is correct on the direction where
my BG is heading..

Is the CGMS covered under most insurance policies? I hadnt thought so? What
kind do you have? the kind advertised in Forecast magazine for the
Medtronic? Does that really require additional blood tests...or do you do
that just be sure?
