Pump maintenance

Hello

I have been with diabetes for a few months, debut in December;I found this forum and is helping me a lot of helping myself on this disease, which was quite unknown to me.

From what I see, you are all happy with the bomb, speaking the other day with a friend, whose son is diabetic, I tell her about the bomb, and she tells me that they have never given her information, because they told her that the bomb the bombIt puts social security, but that the maintenance of it is on your own, and which amounted to about 600 euros per month.

I would like to know if it is true, since I have not read it in the forum.

Thank you so much

It isn't true.
If social security grants the pump, it also runs with maintenance expenses.My daughter has a bomb and does not cost her a cent.
Another thing is that they grant it or not.

Welcome to the forum and we hope you stay.

Insulin is bought, right?
Although the price is 10% of the public sale price (but I remember badly) ... about 3-4 euros a box

Yes, insulin is bought, but with bomb and without it.

Thank you very much for the answer

Here I will continue reading to continue learning

Yes, indeed, Social Security runs with the expenses of the bomb and the fungibles.Pay for a service that is not giving now: 24 -hour customer service and a spare pump if spoils.Today, August 8, I have been spoken by the 16th day and I still don't know if on the 16th that I want to go on vacation I will have a spare.They tell me that there are no spare bombs in Spain.This is new.Medtronic had always worked well, but now breaches the contract with social security.

There are private clinics that put bombs but the price is not close to € 600 per month or by Asomo.People go to these clinics when they see that there is no way that public health is put on.
