Medicare Coverage for the Omni Pod Insulin Pump

The Omni Pod Insulin Pump is one of the BEST DEVICES for controlling Insulin Dependent Diabetes! There are no tubes hanging down, no noise that can be heard by everyone when a bolus of insulin is being delivered!
A trip to the ladies room is simply a trip to the ladies room! The Omni Pod has nothing that detaches!
The BIGGEST PROBLEM REMAINS THE US CONGRESS REFUSING TO CHANGE THE CODE NUMBERS & THE WORDING!

Why is this important?

There are many Diabetics in this Country! A PARTICULARLY Large Number of us are Insulin Dependent!
The Insulet Corporation in Bedford,Ma 01730,tel#1-800-591-3455!
The CCO is Peter Devlin!
This Insulin Pump is easy to use! You can take a shower with it on,you can swim with it! Many of the other Pumps on the Market are a living nightmare for women! These other pumps have a syringe that is filled with insulin a particularly long plastic tube hangs down and one wrong move and it it's dislodged! These other Insulin Pumps cannot be worn in the tub,or the shower or a swimming pool or lake!

The US Congress assigned the Code Numbers:PodA 9274 & PDME:0784 therefor the Omni Pod cannot be covered by Medicare because the assigned numbers make it a disposable item
