Whether Medicare will cover CGMs or test strips depends on WHICH CGM you use and which Medicare plan you pay for. I am on the original Medicare plan, and it will pay for my CGM but not for any test strips since, as Marie20 noted above, I use a G6 which supposedly does not need any test strip backups … until it does. So while my plan will cover some things, other Medicare plans may not. And if you call Medicare and talk to two different people, be ready to get two completely different answers to your questions.
Are we having fun yet?
