Hello everybody,
let me quickly introduce myself, I am 31 year old Type 1 diabetic, diagnosed 8 years ago, living in central europe.
As from the first day I was trying to get know as much as possible and use the latest gadget.
Since that time I tried various CGMs and insulins with no intension to be on a pump.
For quite long term I am able to be around 40 HbA1c.
Currently using:
- Tresiba
- Fiasp
- Dexcom G6
Situation: I was offered move within our company to GB and many questions start to pop-up.
What might be cost or surcharge for a treatment in my case?
I saw that Dexcom for self funders is circa 2500 GBP/year.
Is it ok to stay at the same insulins variant (are they for free?)?
Or are there many condition to be met (for e.g. certain range of HbA1c, and other factors).
My company found out, that Freestyle Libre is free of charge, which I was using as well in a past (V1). I dont want to change my CGM, as I am super happy with G6.
Currently my expenses are zero for insulin, small surecharge for Dexcom.
Thank you very much in advance everybody for your tips, hints, comments, experience
