Dexcom has decided to refer all Medicare patients to trusted distributors with experience serving Medicare patients. We chose to shift all Medicare distribution to our trusted distributors, so we can more fully focus on developing innovative continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems that simplify and improve diabetes management for people around the world.
If a Medicare patient is denied coverage for Dexcom G6, it will be the distributor’s role to advise the patient or provider on the next steps for obtaining coverage.
If a current Dexcom G6 patient “ages into” Medicare eligibility (i.e., turns 65), they will be treated as a new patient. Prescribers should follow the new patient prescription process.
Medicare patients currently using Dexcom G5 will be automatically updated to Dexcom G6 when their G5 transmitter is out of warranty. This means they will automatically get a new Dexcom G6 transmitter and sensors with instructions on how to update the receiver and app. If they do not have a compatible receiver, they will get a new Dexcom G6 receiver. The existing Detailed Written Order (DWO) will be honored.
