Meet the FreeStyle
Libre 2 System
Check your glucose with a painless,*11-second scan instead
of fingersticks† and understand how your body responds
to treatment, food, and exercise. Share insights from the
patterns and trends with healthcare providers and loved
ones. See the complete picture of your glucose levels, not
just a moment in time.
As a courtesy to its customers, Abbott provides the most up-to-date information available, but it is subject to change and
interpretation. The customer is ultimately responsible for determining the appropriate codes, coverage, and payment policies for
individual patients. Abbott does not guarantee third party coverage of payment for our products or reimburse customers for claims that
are denied by third party payors. Medicare coverage is available for the FreeStyle Libre 2 system if a smartphone with the FreeStyle
Libre 2 app is used in conjunction with the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader to review glucose data. Medicare coverage is not available if
a patient never uses the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader, and patients must meet other applicable coverage criteria. See Local Coverage
Determination: Glucose Monitors (L33822), July 2021 and Local Coverage Article: Glucose Monitors (A52464), Jan 2020.
*Data from this study was collected with the outside US version of Freestyle Libre 14 day system. Freestyle Libre 2 has the same
features as Freestyle Libre 14 day system with optional, real-time glucose alarms. Therefore, the study data is applicable to
both products. †Fingersticks are required if your glucose alarms and readings do not match symptoms or when you see Check
Blood Glucose symbol during the first 12 hours. ‡The FreeStyle Libre 2 app is only compatible with certain mobile devices
and operating systems. Please check our website for more information about device compatibility before using the app. Use of
FreeStyle Libre 2 app requires registration with LibreView. §The LibreLinkUp app is only compatible with certain mobile devices
and operating systems. Please check www.librelinkup.com for more information about device compatibility before using the app.
Use of the LibreLinkUp app requires registration with LibreView. Dosing decisions should not be made based on this device.
The user should follow instructions on the continuous glucose monitoring system. This device is not intended to replace self-
monitoring practices as advised by a physician. || The LibreView data management software is intended for use by both patients
and healthcare professionals to assist people with diabetes and their healthcare professionals in the review, analysis and
evaluation of historical glucose meter data to support effective diabetes management. The LibreView software is not intended
to provide treatment decisions or to be used as a substitute for professional healthcare advice. ¶The FreeStyle Libre 2 app
and the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader have similar but not identical features. Fingersticks are required for treatment decisions when
you see Check Blood Glucose symbol and when your glucose alarms and readings from the system do not match symptoms
or expectations. #Notifications will only be received when alarms are turned on and the sensor is within 20 feet of the reading
device. You must have Critical Alerts enabled to receive alarms and alerts on your smartphone.
