Diabetes Type 1 Treatment in Costa Rica

kathrynw

Hi all,




I am a type 1 diabetic currently living in Germany but looking to move to Costa Rica.


Currently I am using the Ypso insulin pump with novorapid insulin and the Freestyle Libre 3 CGM. Does anyone know if I can continue to use these in Costa Rica or would need to make any adjustments? Also, what expected costs would be?




Thank you!

Sorry, cannot help you with answers, rather adding to the general questions.

I am a Type 2 diabetic, insulin dependent plus Metformin. Same question about availability, and is either instance covered under the National health program?

Thanks in advance.
