Hello,
My Medicare Advantage plan has been supporting the Freestyle Libre3 system in advance of Medicare approval. Originally I was told they could do this because an Advantage plan could expand the benefits of traditional Medicare and they were dropping coverage of Dexcom and encouraging patients to switch to Freestyle. I just go a call from my Medicare Advantage plan that they can no longer cover the Freestyle Libre3 after receiving a letter from Medicare prohibiting further coverage until the FDA approved Libre 3 reader is also approved by Medicare. I’ll have to switch back to the Libre 2 until that happens.
Anybody else using the Libre 3 from a Medicare Advantage plan? Just curious. I prefer the continuous aspect of the Libre 3 but will be okay scanning the Libre 2.
