“To claim that all Albertans have access to drug coverage because they can buy a benefit plan if they can afford one is intentionally misleading & beyond offensive,” said FOM ED Chris Gallaway.
17% of Albertans have NO drug coverage. We need Pharmacare!

#Pharmacare will help many 🇨🇦 #ABGov shouldn’t opt out. No one should be denied their medications, pharmacare solves that problem. Yesterday I spoke w/ @cspotweet @630CHED about pharmacare & what it means for diabetics!

The #ABGov plan to opt out of #pharmacare that will cover diabetes meds is shameful & needs to stop!
We started the fight to get #IPTP back & won. This too we will win.

We are calling for the @YourAlberta to follow Manitoba’s lead and expand on diabetes care by covering CGMs. CGMs provide improved quality of life, better health and reduce urgent care by diabetics.

FOM and @Pump4LifeAB are calling on the Alberta government to follow Manitoba's lead in expanding diabetes care. Everyone deserves access to the medications and medical equipment they need!

Today is world Diabetes day. I’ve had Type 1 diabetes for approx 27.5 years. I was diagnosed at the age of 14 and boy did the world change and very fast. More coming, this is a long thread.

Today is World Diabetes Day!
We will not give up and will continue to advocate and fight for diabetes care.

According to the updated
Diabetes Canada Clinical
Practice Guidelines for glucose
monitoring, real time CGM should
be used by individuals of all ages
with Type 1 Diabetes.
Why do you think #ABHealth doesn't cover real time CGM for ppl aged 18+ who have #T1D ?
