[QUOTE="Maco, post: 2358184, member: 465882"] Well it’s certainly not a new pump is it, so there isn’t really much to think about when saying it? More & more CCGs are happily funding the CGM to go with the Medtronic pump and even if they wouldn’t fund the guardian there’s always the option to self fund it especially with Medtronic reducing the costs of it. My question simply was if Medtronic have a new pump available with new amazing features such as automode on the 780G why would they hand out pumps without the feature? I’m guessing the costs to the nhs are pretty similar between the 640 the 670 & the 780. Again I’m guessing, but if the OP had known about the 780 and the features it offers I’m sure they would of chosen that over a 640. You go on about the latest phone, if apple said you can have a free iPhone 6 or a free iPhone 12 who in the right mind would pick the iPhone 6? Not wanting an arguement, it just annoys when CCGs can’t be universal across the country! [/QUOTE]
