Lack of access to insulin is the most common cause of death for children with diabetes in many countries around the world. In fact, in some parts of the world, the estimated life expectancy of a child who has just developed diabetes could be less than a year.

Spare a Rose, Save a Child is simple: buy one less rose this Valentine’s Day and donate the value of that flower to children with diabetes.

Your donation will provide:

  • Regular insulin
  • Quality blood glucose monitoring equipment (meter, strips, lancets)
  • Essential clinical care
  • Up-to-date diabetes education materials

Shocked at how diabetes was treated in the U.S., Jeff Dachis turned his business acumen toward the type 1 and 2 diabetes world. Now the co-founder of RazorFish is the founder and CEO of One Drop. One Drop is clearly a passion for Jeff and his enthusiasm shows in this episode. One Drop is a diabetes tracking app, a blood glucose meter, a community and a new business model for suppling meters and test strips. Looks like diabetes picked on the wrong entrepreneur!

Victor Garber stopped by the Juicebox Podcast to talk about his life with type 1 diabetes, his new show on The CW (a spinoff of The Flash called 'Legends of Tomorrow') and a diabetes charity that he supports called 'Beyond Type 1'.

Its not often that someone is this willing to speak so open and honestly about their life with diabetes. I'm genuinely grateful for Victor's willingness to be transparent about his journey with type 1. It doesn't matter if you are a person living with the disease or someone just hoping to hear about his work on Legends... Victor Garber's kindness and desire for people to learn from his life overflow in this episode - I think you'll love hearing what he had to say, I certainly loved speaking with him!

Anisha Dharshi is a person living with type 1 diabetes who happens to also be the director of type 1 diabetes programs for the American Diabetes Association. Anisha holds a Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins and has focused her career on working in healthcare. She has worked for the British Medical Journal, the Institute of Medicine and the National Quality Forum. Anisha's entire family lives with diabetes; her sister has Type 1, her father was diagnosed with T1 late in life and her mother has type 2 diabetes.

Anisha may have a serious life and a serious education but she is a light-hearted and upbeat individual who is crazy fun to talk to. I get it if you initially hear that the Director of Programs from the ADA is the guest on episode 40 and think, "boring"... but no, no... Anisha rocks! Interesting aside, spellcheck changes her name every time you type it, this took three times as long to write because of that... :)

Freestyle Test Strip Info that Shacey spoke of...

OmniPod® patients now have access to a dedicated toll-free Helpline if they should experience any co-pay or coverage issues with their FreeStyle® Test Strips (877-654-9975). Upon dialing this number, the patient will reach a knowledgeable customer support team member to help them navigate through their test strip coverage.

As of November 2nd, patients who call the support number will also be offered the Prior Authorization Assistance Program (PAAP). The goal of the PAAP is to ensure easy access to FreeStyle test strips for new (and existing) OmniPod patients. With patient consent and HIPAA authorization, the following steps will be taken to execute on the PAAP: 

1. Abbott will conduct a full Benefit Investigation. 
2. From there, Abbott will both facilitate/assist in reaching out to the patient's payers and HCP to obtain the Prior Authorization (Appeal or Tier Exception) approval. 
3. If approved, Abbott will be sending the PA approval and Rx referral to the patient's pharmacy of choice. 
. If denied, Abbott will be driving patients to participating pharmacies (major retail chains). Eligible patients may be able to benefit/receive automatic and affordable co-pay savings at participating pharmacies.

Jenna is an eighteen year old college student who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of thirteen. To say that Jenna has 'it' together is, well, the understatement of all understatements. Seriously, I hope my kids turn out half as well. Heck, I wish her parents raised me....

"The interesting thing about (having) diabetes is that you start to understand other people's problems more clearly..."

Jenna talks about her diagnosis and how her mom handled the life change. Find out about decisions that she's made on her own to help her blood glucose levels and much more. Listening to Jenna will leave you comforted if you're the parent of a child with type 1 and perhaps inspired if you are living with it yourself.

Check Jenna out on Instagram, she's at diabetestips and look for a guest blog post from her soon on Arden's Day. I need a kid to explain this Instagram thing to me, I'm apparently not doing it well.

Just 24 hours after the surprise FDA approval of the Dexcom G5 continuous glucose monitoring system, I spoke with Dexcom EVP Steven Pacelli and asked him all of the questions that were submitted to me by my blog readers and podcast listeners - I even threw in a few of my own.

If you're wondering about Dexcom G5 upgrading, cost, out of pocket, battery life and more? This is the podcast for you!

Steven was named Executive Vice President of Strategy and Corporate development in 2012. Mr. Pacelli has served in roles of increasing responsibility with Dexcom since 2006, including its Chief Operating Officer from 2010 to 2012, its Chief Administrative Officer from 2008 to 2010, its Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs from 2007 to 2008, and its Vice President of Legal Affairs from 2006 to 2007.

Kris Freeman, four-time Olympic cross country skier, comes on the podcast to share his take on the controversial remarks posted on Twitter by the CrossFit CEO in 2015, and why Kris thinks Type 1 diabetes should be renamed. Scott and Kris discuss the challenges of living and working with others who have preconceived stereotypes about what it means to live with Type 1 diabetes. Kris describes the early years of his management and how he manages now in order to compete at the Olympic level in cross country skiing. Scott shares his thoughts on why having stable blood sugars are important and why he works so hard to keep Arden’s blood sugar stable overnight.
