From Friday 1 October 2021, the Type 1 Diabetes; Pregnancy Planning, Extension of Access form will be available for women to use when applying for extended access to the Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Initiative for continued pregnancy planning.
This form will replace the previous requirement for supporting documentation from both a diabetes health professional (authorised to certify CGM Initiative applications) and a fertility specialist, obstetrician or gynaecologist, confirming active pregnancy planning is continuing and an extension of access to continuous and flash glucose monitoring (CGM and Flash GM) products is required after the initial 12 months.
Women with type 1 diabetes actively planning pregnancy are eligible for access to CGM and Flash GM products through the CGM Initiative as part of the NDSS. They are eligible for access for a period up to 12 months (initial period of 6 months with a subsequent period of an additional 6 months on confirmation—by an authorised health professional—that pre-pregnancy care is continuing).
In certain circumstances, extended access to the CGM Initiative through the NDSS may be granted for women with type 1 diabetes who are continuing actively planning pregnancy beyond the initial 12 months.
The Type 1 Diabetes; Pregnancy Planning, Extension of Access form should be used to apply to extend access to CGM and Flash GM products for a further 6 months. This form replaces the previous requirement for supporting documentation.
The eligibility criteria to access CGM and Flash GM products through the CGM Initiative for women with type 1 diabetes actively planning pregnancy have not changed.
From 1 October 2021, the new Type 1 Diabetes; Pregnancy Planning, Extension of Access form will be available on the NDSS website at ndss.com.au/forms#cgm.
Only health professionals listed on the Type 1 Diabetes; Pregnancy Planning, Extension of Access form can certify extended access.
