See below the news article regarding the much anticipated public release of the tandem Mobi pump, which occurred this week. I personally have contacted my local Tandem rep and trainer to set up an appointment for a hands on exploration of this pump to check it out for accessibility as we do not really know at this time If the app that controls the pump will be fully accessible.  In future weeks, there will hopefully be more clarification as to how insurance would handle this upgrade for current users who still have a pump under warranty. Anyone who has or gets additional information about this, please post so we can all share our updates.
Patricia.

Hello friends,
Wanted to share my exciting experience.
I met with my Tandem rep on Saturday and was able to play around with her personal Mobi pump and paired iPhone. She uses the MOBI herself. I did a cartridge and site change for her on her pump and was able to get voice over to perform all functions on the iPhone app. Measuring out an exact dose of insulin in the cartridge is not possible but the cartridge holds only 200 units. With practice a person could probably figure out how to put in 100 units  approximately or use the full 200 units by pulling the plunger all the way back. I know that many people fill their cartridges completely and then change out just their infusion site every two or three days until the insulin in the cartridge is gone. This is not FDA approved, but people do it. I took an insulin pen that I have to see if you could hook it on the cartridge syringe  needle, and in that way, measure out an exact dose of insulin to put into the syringe. It does fit over the needle very nicely, but I have not yet tried to dial up a precise dose and put it in a practice syringe that I have. Cannot see why this wouldn?t work, so would be a great workaround for measuring precise amount of insulin.  There is a new optional infusion set that is only 5 inches long that allows people to wear  the pump using a little sleeve with adhesive backing that is attached to the body resembling  what it?s like to wear a patch pump. The pump can be worn in the shower and swimming and it goes through all TSA devices. . The actual iPhone app works much much better than the simulator program that is on the Tandem website. Voiceover  on the simulator has a lot of problems although I was able to get through most but not all of the screens. On the pump app itself it goes much more smoothly. It would initially take a sighted person to coach someone along as to where the different buttons are located as you sometimes have to jump around the screen to find the done button or the finish buttons similar to on the current bolus feature. There is supposed to be a simulator app available on the iOS App Store very soon and then we can see if it works more like the real app. I am very excited as this may be a pump that I would be comfortable with using independently. The pump is very tiny and lightweight and would fit in the coin pocket of a pair of jeans. More members of our task force are going to get the opportunity to work with demos of the pump and give feedback. 
They do have the proper billing code for Medicare, so Medicare patients also should be able to get the pump but it?s a little murky as to whether Medicare patients with time left on pump warranties will be able to upgrade before the end of their warranty. Hopefully will get this information clarified soon.
This pump came on the market as of February 12 for sale to the public.

Is this the tubeless tandum  pod, which will work with libre senssors.

Gary, no, this is still a tubed pump, and the shortest infusion set is now 5 inches. In the last year and a half there has been news in the business world and on the Tandem website about the fact that they purchased a company in Switzerland called AMF medical, which was developing a tubeless pump, called the.Sigi.  It appeared that they were going to take over the continued development of this pump for the Tandem pipeline. I have no additional updated information on this and my rep had not heard about the name of this pump. She thinks it may still be in the works, but under a new name. In the last year or two I have viewed some podcasts about things that may be in the Tandem pipeline, but things are always changing. do you have any  information you can share about the development of this tubeless

I want to share what I learned this morning when Tandem sales department called me back to answer questions about how the new pump will be handled with Medicare upgrades.
For people who are on Medicare and do not currently have a tandem pump. They can order now and the coverage will be the way it  is currently with their Medicare plan
For Medicare patients that purchased a T slim X 2 pump last fall before December 31 they will be able to upgrade immediately to the Mobi for $199.
for Medicare patients who currently have a tandem pump that is still under warranty, but was purchased longer ago. There is a program called choice that will allow them to purchase the.Mobi upgrade sometime this summer for $999. Forms and application Materials are expected to be available around April to get the process started. for this group of patients, they can try the pump for 90 days and if they decide that it is not for them return it and pay only $199. if they keep the new pump then they will return their current tandem pump. Their original warranty on their current pump will remain the same so for example my warranty runs out in 2027 and that?s when the warranty on the Mobi would expire.
The person I spoke with indicated that the same policies above will apply to patients with commercial insurance. In the past Medicare has never allowed people to get an upgraded pump while they were still under warranty but Tandem went through some sort of legal process stating that this was an undue hardship on patients and got the Medicare ruling changed last October.
When getting a pump from Tandem through the choice program it is a business arrangement directly between Tandem and the patient and no billing goes through Medicare.
Any patient with any coverage who purchases a pump always has the 90 day option to return it if it doesn?t work, and the 90 days starts from the day the pump is shipped.
The above information is what I got today, but anyone interested should verify all the facts 
themselves as there sometimes is confusion and things are always changing.
Patricia.

OK folks,
There still seems to be a bit of misunderstanding at Tandem about how this upgrade is going to work. A friend of mine who has never been on a tandem pump, and therefore would be a new customer and is on Medicare. just tried to order one and they told him that he also would have to wait for the release coming this summer. I followed up with another phone call to Tandem and ask them to explain in more detail. Apparently the only people that can order right now would be those who have a commercial insurance plan that contracts directly through Tandem rather than using a third-party DME distributor. Because Medicare does not contract directly with Tandem. All those patients would have to wait till the public release in the summer. People with commercial insurance also that does not contract directly with Tandem. Also will have to wait till the summer. I have now gotten two different answers as to whether you can call now and get a file started if you want to order a pump or whether you need to wait a while to do that. Good luck.
Patricia.

How do you talk about a first and second prize when all three prizes are first rate and each winner is a first prize winner? Imagine being the winner of a robotic vacuum cleaner and for once being able to enjoy watching someone do your work without feeling guilt! Of course, then there is the Amazon player that can play your favorite music, keep you up-to-date on the news using whatever new source you wish, and even control the vacuum cleaner should you be lucky enough to win both of them. And, yes, there is more: You may be the winner of a Sound Core water proof speaker by Anchor that features two light rings and 12 hours of playtime. 

As wonderful as these prizes are, the best benefit is what you are doing for blind people who get a new lease on life every time our division helps make some product more accessible or lets a blind person know that something they thought would take vision to operate is independently usable by a blind person. Think about the value of your donation in establishing and maintaining relationships with companies so that when they design products, those products are already usable nonvisually. Your donation will, for many blind people, quite literally make the difference between whether they go into a care facility or remain at home as independently functioning human beings. Lastly, your donation not only will determine the quality of one?s life but the length of it, because the better one manages diabetes, the longer they have to live.

How do you talk about a first and second prize when all three prizes are first rate and each winner is a first prize winner? Imagine being the winner of a robotic vacuum cleaner and for once being able to enjoy watching someone do your work without feeling guilt! Of course, then there is the Amazon player that can play your favorite music, keep you up-to-date on the news using whatever new source you wish, and even control the vacuum cleaner should you be lucky enough to win both of them. And, yes, there is more: You may be the winner of a Sound Core water proof speaker by Anchor that features two light rings and 12 hours of playtime. 

As wonderful as these prizes are, the best benefit is what you are doing for blind people who get a new lease on life every time our division helps make some product more accessible or lets a blind person know that something they thought would take vision to operate is independently usable by a blind person. Think about the value of your donation in establishing and maintaining relationships with companies so that when they design products, those products are already usable nonvisually. Your donation will, for many blind people, quite literally make the difference between whether they go into a care facility or remain at home as independently functioning human beings. Lastly, your donation not only will determine the quality of one?s life but the length of it, because the better one manages diabetes, the longer they have to live.

Accessible Pharmacy, which is a mail order pharmacy for people who are blind or low vision has developed some classes that are available only in some states where they have a contract to provide services. You would need to check directly with them for availability in your area.

Hi Andrea. I am sending you infor= on an up coming event in April, hosted by the Diabetes Action Network. 
If you would like to give me a call at 573 268 6989, we can see what else we might come up with.


We know that diabetes is the leading cause of blindness in the United States, and we know that without the proper intervention, many people will see this as something they cannot manage on their own. Although there are real problems with the medical technology that is not accessible to us, blind diabetics can and do live independently, and communicating this message and the work that remains to be done is the reason we are holding the knowledge is Sweet seminar.

 

Our seminar, sponsored by our Diabetes Action Network, will be held on Friday, April 26, and Saturday, April 27, 2024. We'll be meeting at the Hilton St. Louis Airport located at 10330 Natural Bridge Rd, St. Louis, MO 63134. The cost of a room is $111 a night, and when you book, the room block is under the name National Federation of the Blind. To reach the hotel call 314-426-5500. We tried it, it works, and registering only begins the fun.

 

The board is working on the agenda, and we are trying to get doctors, dietitians, drug manufacturers, and the people who make devices we use in administering those drugs and in checking our blood sugar. We already have one of our keynote speakers, Gary Taubes. For those of you who may not know him, he is a journalist who looked into the science of obesity and the diseases it makes us susceptible to getting. Conclusions he draws from often overlooked scientists are: 

?           Obesity is not an issue of those who have willpower and those who don't

?           The assertion that weight maintenance, weight loss, and weight gain is not nearly as simple as calories in vs calories out

?           The idea that eating fat will make you fat seems to have a ring of truth about it, but the supposition is not supported by studies and the way we digest and use food for energy

?           A calorie is a calorie is much too simplistic when it comes to food

?           The prescription to eat low-fat high-carbohydrate foods provably does not work for most people

?           We eat much too much sugar, and this excess is responsible for many of the problems we have?problems which were once called the King's Disease because only people of wealth could afford sugar in significant amounts

?           Science tries to be driven by facts, but even it falls prey to inertia. Popular opinions get published; unpopular ones must look to places other than scientific journals for real airing and discussion

 

The purpose of our seminar is to promote thought and discussion; it is not to endorse or debunk any point of view, because we do not consider ourselves experts on nutrition, exercise, or even diabetes. Our goal is to share, to learn, and to give people tools that they are free to use or not. Our mission is to send one message clearly and concisely: In your blindness and diabetes, you are not alone. We will share our stories with the hope that they will add to the independence and freedom all of us want.

 

Please register with the hotel as soon as you can. For a copy of the Knowledge is Sweet Registration form, write to Debbie Wunder, debbiewunder at charter.net. Alternatively, text or call me at 573-268-6989. The cost will be $99, and this fee will entitle you to four plated meals and all presentations.

 

I am excited, and I hope you are as well. I don't enjoy the disease we share, but I love the work we can do to help blind people learn to live and thrive with it.
