I checked on this for my wife and was told you can only get it covered if you 
check 4 times a day and inject 3 times a day.

 

It may be that the provider knew my insurance and a different insurance company 
might have different rules.

Two major CGM systems seem popular these days:

https://www.freestylelibre.us/cgm-difference/cgm-reinvented.html  14 day 
lifespan

https://www.dexcom.com/g6-cgm-system  10 day lifespan

 

Some insurance plans cover one rather than the other. I have the dexcom, 
overall it works well. However, I find it helpful to shave the insertion site, 
add extra adhesive and apply a patch-like add-on at insertion time to get it to 
stick well. I would think that difficult to do without some sighted assistance. 
VoiceOver seems to work with the app in my limited testing.

I believe it requires at least an iPhone 7 because of the sensor requirements.

about that you wear a patch for 14 days and the app gets the results through it?
