The Dexcom rep explained that because my last order occurred after FDA approval but before the G6 transmitters and sensors were available, they would be sending me a free G6 transmitter. I still have the G5 transmitter and some spare G5 sensors, so that’s pretty cool.

**He said that they will only offer G5 transmitters and sensors until Medicare approves the G6.** Since this G6 transmitter is free and it sounds like the G5 will only be available for a limited time, I decided to let the order process. He said that as long as Medicare hasn’t approved the G6, I can still switch back to ordering the G5 if I don’t like the G6.
