芒果直播 welcomes the Albanese Government鈥檚 decision to add the Omnipod DASH庐 insulin pods to the National Diabetes Services Scheme (NDSS) giving people with type 1 diabetes even more options to manage type 1 diabetes.

The Omnipod DASH庐 Insulin Management System uses a tubeless, wearable and waterproof pod that is integrated with a small handheld Personal Diabetes Manager to provide calibrated delivery of insulin over a 72-hour period.

From 1 December, people living with type 1 diabetes will be able to access the insulin pods in a similar way to other insulin pump products listed on the NDSS.

芒果直播 Group CEO Justine Cain welcomed the decision saying it would ensure more people living with type 1 diabetes would be able to access the system.

鈥淭his is great news for people living with type 1 diabetes who choose to use the Omnipod DASH庐 system to manage their diabetes,鈥� Ms Cain said.

鈥淲e鈥檝e heard from many people living with type 1 diabetes that the Omnipod DASH庐 system is convenient and helps ease the day-to-day burden of diabetes management.

鈥淧eople living with diabetes have their own preferences and it is important they have affordable access to the diabetes technology that best suits their lifestyle.鈥�

Ms Cain said the Albanese Government鈥檚 decision was warmly welcomed by the diabetes community.

鈥溍⒐�直播 and the diabetes community have been advocating for the inclusion of Omnipod DASH庐 on the NDSS and we are grateful that the Government has listened,鈥� she said.

鈥淥n behalf of people living with diabetes I鈥檇 like to say thank you to the Albanese Government.

鈥淚鈥檇 also like to thank Health Minister Mark Butler. It is clear Minister Butler is a Health Minister who understands diabetes and is committed to doing what he can to make living with the condition easier.鈥�
