Albertans are now covered for the Omnipod 5, the first tubeless insulin pump system available in the province.
This innovative technology uses real-time data from a continuous glucose monitor to automatically adjust insulin delivery and help keep glucose levels within a target range.
By expanding coverage, Alberta is providing people living with diabetes access to life-changing technology that simplifies daily care and supports better health outcomes.

Canada has a choice about the kinds of devices and medicines we provide to Canadians who need healthcare - procuring medical devices in a way that recognizes the need for better patient outcomes isn’t optional - c @BioscienceMB @Medtech_Canada

Canada's Medical device sector makes up about .5% of Canada's total gross domestic product - this is about the same as all service producing industries in Canada (think real estate, higher education, financial services etc...)

Canada is rich in natural resources - but domestic medical device manufacturing is worth about as much to the economy as 1/2 of the agriculture sector
The Canadian medical devices manufacturing sector contributed $13.7 billion in gross value added (GVA) - in 2023👇
