How do you order your supplies?
As you all know, living with diabetes means dealing with a lot of stuff: insulin, glucose tabs, meters, test strips, reservoirs, tape, infusion sets, sensors, skin prep, the list goes on. And, of course, you have to keep on top of ordering all this stuff, since running out can be anywhere from inconvenient to dangerous.

I just got off the phone after yet another frustrating conversation with a Medtronic representative. Don't get me wrong, I like Medtronic, but I continue to have the same problem ordering online. I order 3 supplies ONLINE, one being the wipes, which is a product covered by SOME insurances. However, I know wipes are not covered by MY insurance. So in order to avoid waiting 14 days while Medtronic submits the claim for that one product to my insurance and my insurance rejects it, I call and ask that the price of the wipes be charged to my credit card. Because I make the call to Medtronic, they want to charge me a shipping cost for my order. I say, what are you talking about?!? I ordered online and am forced to make this call to you to put the cost of the wipes on my credit card. Shipping for online orders is FREE. Then they tell me that the shipping cost will be WAIVED for this order. What the heck...the order was placed ONLINE. If Medtronic's ordering website was structured a little differently, I would be able to request ONLINE that this item be charged to my credit card and not my insurance. How else can I accomplish this, WITHOUT having to make a call after placing an online order??? Please help me with this because it is annoying to have to call and go through this each and every time I place an order for wipes. Thanks
