PRINCE GEORGE – Diabetics that meet a wide range of criteria might be eligible to obtain coverage from PharmaCare as of August 1.

FreeStyle Libre 2 is a flash glucose monitor that is inserted into a person’s upper arm to track the body’s glucose levels. It’s helpful for those who need moderate tracking, but they need an app on their phone to be able to do so. All of this sounds good, but the coverage just isn’t enough for for local diabetic, Robert Corbin.

There is a good number of people that do use this system. I mean, even people that are in prediabetes and are not considered in that 300,000 patient caseload number, so this is going to affect quite a few people.

Adblock test (Why?)
