@CatLady I understand Medicare has weird rules on whether a pump is tubed determining whether they’ll cover it or not, like it makes a practical difference! The Kaleido part of this looks like a potential way around the rule because it’s tubed.
I think it is Medicare Part B versus Part D on which one covers tubed versus tubeless.
I hope I never have to figure that stuff out!
This sounds like a great addition to the closed loop devices. Based on its restrictive 110-130 target and locked down smartphone requirement, though, I’d stick with DIY Loop.
This one at least lets you enter some carb amount.
Also, the system allows you to save personalized preferences for each meal (like a typical small breakfast of 20g of carbs, a medium breakfast of 40g of carbs, or a large breakfast of 80g of carbs). So you can choose this option when announcing a meal. The user can decide the level of precision they want to play with. In any case, the algorithm will learn to adapt and correct.
I have seen some that do not have any carb entry, they just respond once your BG starts to rise. I think that’s nuts.
