About Continuous Glucose Monitors and Medicare coverage
Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) measure interstitial fluid glucose every 1-5 minutes and transmit readings wirelessly to a receiver or smartphone. Medicare Part B covers CGMs under HCPCS E2103 for beneficiaries who use insulin and have a documented history that self-monitoring is not providing adequate control. Coverage includes the CGM system (transmitter/receiver) and an ongoing supply of sensors. Most Phoenix-area endocrinologists are familiar with the CMS therapeutic CGM criteria — we handle the prior authorization directly with your prescriber.
"I called at 9 AM and my CGM supplies were at my door by the next morning. The rep explained my Part B coverage clearly — something my pharmacy never did."
