Shacey Petrovic, CEO and president of Insulet, has discussed the company's efforts to expand access to its Omnipod insulin delivery system. She stated that Insulet explored the pharmacy channel to make Omnipod more broadly available, eliminating upfront costs so users or payers only pay for pods as they are used. Petrovic also noted that the company rolled out a free 30-day trial program for potential users. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she said Insulet expanded its financial assistance program for customers who lost their jobs and insurance coverage. Petrovic has described the Omnipod 5 as an automated insulin delivery system that integrates with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) such as Dexcom's G6 sensor. She stated that the system's algorithm resides in the pod, allowing users to remain in closed-loop control during activities like exercise or showering. Petrovic also said Insulet has partnerships with both Dexcom and Abbott, and that the first generation of Omnipod 5 will launch with Dexcom integration, followed by integration with Abbott's Libre. She emphasized the company's focus on reducing the burden of diabetes management through innovation and integration with consumer technology.
“My first job out of college was pharmaceutical sales β it was a way to combine my love of science and some interest in business β but I quickly got into medtech and built my commercial career there.”
“We are providers: we do the benefits investigation, we deliver the product directly to the patient, we train the patient and then we really support the patient for the first number of weeks or months to make sure they get off successfully on the technology.”
“A person living with diabetes has to make 300 decisions a day β it's like another full-time job.”
“Insulet's Omnipod is a disposable, waterproof pod you wear anywhere on your body that delivers three days of non-stop insulin and is controlled by a handheld controller.”
“In the United States there are approximately five to six million people who could benefit from our technology, yet only about a third of people with type 1 use pump or pod therapy β two-thirds are still injecting.”
“We organized our COVID response around three principles β keep our team safe, preserve the wellbeing of our communities, and get pods to our customers β and quickly implemented protocols learned from China so our US operations did not miss a beat.”
“We explored the pharmacy channel to make Omnipod more broadly available: we eliminated all upfront cost so a user or payer only pays for pods as they use them, instead of a large upβfront durable medical equipment payment.”
“Omnipod 5 is our automated insulin delivery system: a CGM communicates directly to the pod and an algorithm predicts an hour ahead, giving micro doses every five minutes to keep users in range and dramatically reduce the cognitive burden of diabetes.”
“We have partnerships with both Dexcom and Abbott and will integrate with their technologies β our next generation system will integrate with both Abbott and Dexcom.”
“Intimacy with our customers drives our innovation: collecting CGM and insulin delivery data lets us deliver insights back to users β and with consent we could even use calendar or reservation data to offer personalized advice to improve outcomes.”
“The Omnipod 5 will be the world's first tubeless automated insulin delivery system that integrates with Dexcom's G6 sensor, representing a significant technological advancement in diabetes management.”
“The system's algorithm resides directly in the pod, allowing users to go for a run, shower, or sleep without disconnecting, which greatly enhances ease of use and continuous control.”
“Diversity and gender equality are crucial in our industry; today, nearly half of our board members are women, and we see increasing leadership roles for women in diabetes tech and healthcare.”
“We are committed to reducing burden and increasing simplicity in diabetes management through innovation, artificial intelligence, and integration with consumer technology, aiming to improve outcomes and quality of life.”
“The future of diabetes care involves merging medical technology with consumer devices, making management more predictive, intuitive, and less burdensome for patients.”
