[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 934501, member: 102150"] But are you factoring in the cost of continuing to test at least 5x per day with Dexcom to meet manufacturers recommendations on calibration tests and pre-dosing tests? That's £900 of your £1800 that can't be mitigated by CGM other than by ignoring manufacturer safety instructions. And neither NICE nor the NHS can make policy on that basis. Not without developing steel gonads. Also they probably have to base their official cost benefit analysis on official manufacturer consumables policy, so no "sensor stretching" (reuse) for Dexcom. I realise Abbot say no calibration needed for the Libre but I believe that has not held up in practical use? [/QUOTE]
