The #1 Prescribed Automated Insulin Delivery System1 is Now Available with Dexcom G7

Omnipod 5 simplifies insulin management to make diabetes a smaller part of your patient’s day—and an easier part of yours.

Simplified for You 
Omnipod 5 users with type 1 diabetes achieved nearly 70% TIR at an average target of 110 mg/dL, and time below range of 1.12%2.

Simplified for Them 
Your patients can spend more time in Automated Mode, with a shorter CGM warm up period.

Simple to Access 
The new Pods, which are compatible with both Dexcom G6 & Dexcom G7, use the same NDC as today. This ensures high insurance coverage at launch and reduces confusion at the pharmacy.

Getting MDI and Tubed Pump Patients Started

For your patients on multiple daily injections (MDI) or a tubed pump, prescribe Omnipod 5 with Dexcom G7 through ASPN.

We are initially launching with ASPN Pharmacies while we work to get the new G7 compatible Pods into all retail pharmacies.

e-Prescribe

  1. Send both Intro Kit & Refill Pods to ASPN Pharmacies (reference Rx details).
  2. ASPN will verify coverage and ensure your patient receives Pods that are compatible with Dexcom G7.
Customers with insurance plans requiring local pickup will be unable to be processed by ASPN (including Medicaid insured customers). They will need to start on Omnipod 5 with Dexcom G6 through their preferred pharmacy and wait for the new Pods to be available.

Switching Current Omnipod 5 Patients Who Use Dexcom G6

  • Your current Omnipod 5 patients have received a free software update on their Controller or compatible smartphone.3 This update allows users to pair a Dexcom G6 or G7 sensor with a compatible Pod.  
  • Have your patients continue using their G6 supplies until they see “Compatible with G7” on their Pod refill box. At that point, you can write a new prescription for the Dexcom G7 sensor and have them pair at their next Pod change.
  • Note, you will not need to write a new Omnipod 5 prescription for your current patients.
