A gut punch for sure - although I do have to admit I like @Judith_in_Portland’s ostinato better.
I am behind you in a similar boat, waiting to see what my retirement from a big company brings when I reach Medicare eligibility in approx. 4 years. Today, I would be covered, but each year has brought either increased OOP costs, or diminished benefits, or both.
In the meantime, I hope you will contact your Senators and Congressperson and request they co-sponsor the Medicare CGM Access Act of 2015. (This link takes you to the DPAC’s letter generating site. No fundraising required!)
This is important for many reasons. Foremost to me is all the T1Ds who are truly in the boat you thought you were in, Terry. But another is as CGMs move toward integration into an Artificial/Bionic Pancreas, many seniors will be left behind without this legislation.
