[QUOTE="Scott-C, post: 1622149, member: 374531"] Agree totally, Bud. I've no idea what the politicians/funders will do with this, but there's a sense that it's moving in the right direction. When people turn up for their yearly or six monthly check up, the doc has got a simple a1c number, we've got an agp breaking it down, and daily prints for the detail. Docs are going to want that - last consult I had, we spent 25 mins pouring over it, instead of the usual 10 mins. They want to see this stuff, and that desire will filter down to influence the funders. I've got a consultation coming up in December - I'm highly tempted to say, look, mate, I've got all this information which lets me make much better decisions than your pissy little a1c does, but I paid for it, it's mine, so you can go hang, maybe show it to you when nhs starts paying for it. My DSN is T1 too. She says it like she sees it. She's not slow in coming forward, and I reckon people like her just chipping away in the background will lead to changes. We're getting there, but it'll take time. [/QUOTE]
