Episode Description

Medtronic and Abbott are joining forces – and we have questions. The announcement that Abbott will create a new CGM, based on the Freestyle Libre, exclusively for Medtronic comes just as Medtronic gets FDA approval for it's newest sensor. So why the team up? Why now? And what will all this look like for the person using these systems?  We're talking to both companies.
