About Insulin Pump Supplies and Medicare coverage
Insulin pump supplies — infusion sets, reservoirs, and pod packs — are the consumable component of pump therapy. Medicare Part B covers monthly supplies under HCPCS A9274. Infusion sets should be changed every 2-3 days; leaving a site in longer increases absorption variability and infection risk, especially in Arizona heat. We ship a 90-day supply at a time to minimize the number of deliveries and ensure you never run short. Compatible sets for Tandem, Omnipod, and Medtronic are stocked and ship same-day.
"I'm a veteran and was confused about whether VA or Medicare covered my supplies. They sorted it out with one call and billed the right payer. That alone was worth it."
