[QUOTE="smc4761, post: 1801552, member: 119069"] Lanarkshire NHS have released the criteria for people to receive the Freestyle Libre. Basically type 1 who are testing at least 8 times a day and those with no hypo awareness. They are only rolling out around 12 per month Luckily I was a DAFNE course a few weeks ago and expressed an interest to the DSN running the course. She put me forward and yesterday I received my new Freestyle Libre. Hopefully this will have a huge impact on my life and improve my overall control I do agree that the bean counters only look at the headline figures on cost and forget to look at the ongoing cost that may be in background, hypos--ambulance costs, health issues, amputation blindness etc. The difference in cost between sensors and test strips is not that huge which makes it even more frustrating [/QUOTE]
