Since I’m now on MDI (Tresiba) and on a Dexcom G6 CGM, I no longer need my Guardian Sensor 3 and Guardian Connect Transmitter. I have three unopened boxes of Sensors.
Anyone know where I can donate these? I’m in the Washington D.C. metro area.
Joslin - Boston has a very strict policy and the answer is always no!!! I have asked several times in the past and am told it is against the law so I asked my doctor to discreetly give my email address to any patient that has a financial need and can’t afford the insulin or supplies I no longer need and was told that would be in violation of Hippa laws.
I threw out my excess insulin, but my supplies put them up on eBay at a reasonable price and they sold out in 48 hours but I felt guilty as heck selling items that were mostly paid for by insurance, but better going to someone else than into the trash.
You could contact a non profit. I was put in touch with a church in Atlanta that needed the supplies, but they made everything as difficult as possible. I wasn’t going to pay to ship 18 months worth of supplies across the country. It just wasn’t worth the time in the end, in the trash they went.
