Dexcom G6 Glucose Sensor (3pk) STS-OM-003

To be dispensed to patients with prescriptions only

Manufacturer: Dexcom

Features: 

-The sensor is designed to be small and discreet, which makes it easy to wear without interfering with daily activities. It attaches comfortably to the skin, typically on the abdomen or the back of the upper arm. To apply, you can use a user-friendly applicator, which inserts a small, flexible filament just under the skin. This process is quick and straightforward, ensuring that users can start monitoring their glucose levels with minimal hassle.

-Once in place, the G6 sensor measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid (the fluid between cells) and transmits this data to the Dexcom G6 transmitter. Subsequently, the transmitter sends the data to a compatible receiver or smartphone app. As a result, the sensor provides real-time glucose readings every five minutes, allowing users to view their current glucose levels and trends. This continuous flow of data helps in making informed decisions regarding insulin dosing, diet, and exercise. Additionally, the system features customizable alerts and alarms for high and low glucose levels, helping users respond promptly to any significant fluctuations in their glucose levels. Importantly, the Dexcom G6 sensor is factory-calibrated, which means users do not need to perform routine fingerstick calibrations. This calibration-free design simplifies the monitoring process and enhances user convenience.

-Furthermore, the inclusion of Medicaid/Medicare in the product description indicates that the sensor is eligible for coverage under these programs. Such coverage helps to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for eligible individuals, making advanced diabetes management technology more accessible.
