clubkobe commented on Mathew's group 'OmniPod Users'"You have to call omnipod and ask the for suppliers in your state. I went thru this in the state of WA, same deal about out of state would be considered out of network. Omnipod found me a couple of places and I received pods within a few days from…"
clubkobe replied to Christy's discussion 'Ongoing delay in recieving pods' in the group OmniPod Users"Edgepark has been okay. At first they wanted to charge me too much because they wrongly concluded I hadn't met my deductible. But that got resolved and pods arrived on time with free shipping. Interestingly, I will no longer be using them.…"
clubkobe replied to cbaj43's discussion 'Pod users who also use dexcom cams' in the group OmniPod Users"I have found the two very pair-able. I won't be eligible for the G-4 until April but the SevenPlus works quite well and I check it constantly. It's been the main reason for bringing my A1C's into good control. It's also helped…"
johnnyjumpstart replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"how will it work if your pods are supplied by Liberty Medical in terms of Insulet switching you over to the new pods??"
Helmut replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"New customers already get the smaller pod. Existing customers will get the smaller pod in the next couple of weeks. This is what Insulet said. You are free to believe or not to believe. I like to believe, but I don't."
clubkobe replied to Christy's discussion 'Ongoing delay in recieving pods' in the group OmniPod Users"I seem to get mine pretty quickly too. But mine don't come from Medco, they come from a place called EdgePark Medical Supplies. But curious that I get all my other meds from Medco. So I'm going to look into that and thanks for the tip. You…"
Disneyanna replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"Thank you so much for this information! I had to have my PDM replaced last week, as it stopped functioning correctly and my new PODS come tomorrow (regular shipment). So happy that this will be my last order of BIG ones!!"
clubkobe replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"Thanks, I appreciate those details."
aimeeh2oski replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"Insulet will send you an email a few weeks before you get a shipment because there is an online training/tutorial to complete. We just got another 90-day supply a couple of weeks ago and the rep said that our next shipment in late April would be the…"
Helmut replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"Q4 2012 Insulet Corporation Earnings Conf Call is on Feb 27, 2013 5:00 PM ET.
I expect a reliable update then."
Brian replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"I was told by an Omnipod re-order rep that the new pods won't start shipping until at least late March. Also, Omnipod will contact you well in advance to let you know you're being switched over to the new system, along with information…"
clubkobe replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"That does help. Thanks."
clubkobe replied to clubkobe's discussion 'new pods' in the group OmniPod Users"I've only read on their website that they will contact you and I seem to remember reading there won't be a charge to switch but not 100% sure on that. I'm going to call Insulet next week and see what I can find out."

Linda G said… - Hey! Welcome home!
I am happy that you are reading this and that you are a member of the growing TuDiabetes family.
Since the community was formed back in early 2007, lots of things have changed. Also since then, lots of new members have joined: we're now nearly 11,300 members. So, new members and new features means it never hurts to refresh how things work around the community.
If you haven't read it, I invite you to take a few minutes to go through our New Member Guide. If you have been a member for a while but have let a little dust accumulate on your TuDiabetes account, you will find it very useful. If you joined just recently, you will find it EVEN MORE handy.
If you don't find answers to a question you may have, never hesitate to ask. Click on the Contact Us link at the bottom of any page and one of the members of our Admin team (you can see their faces on the bottom right side of any page) will get back to you shortly.
