Dexcom G6, still working on getting approval
for that - I'll have to call my doctor's office on
Monday to see what's going on with that.

Today, got 5 vials of Fiasp insulin & 90 day supply
of Omnipod DASH pods ordered. Fiasp was deduc-
tible of $19 per vial & Omnipod DASH pods was
deductible of $1.50 per pod (30 pods), total deduc-
tible for 90 days = $140.
