My insurance company would not cover the Libre and I assumed this was because my provinces medical plan had not approved this equipment. Health benefits are provided through a pension plan and require provincial approval. I have been been corresponding with the province to get approval but finally just ignored. At the suggestion of my pharmacist I obtained approval from my MD to use the Libre and when submitted to the insurance company they accepted the product and have now paid out all my claims. I understand other insurance companies in Canada will pay claims so if you live here without coverage keep pushing everyone you can. Not sure if Diabetes Canada will be any help.
