Medtronic Requests Approval of Non-Adjunctive Labeling from FDA

Medtronic plc(opens new window) (NYSE:MDT), the global leader in medical technology, services and solutions, today announced its Premarket Approval (PMA) submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requesting approval for non-adjunctive labeling for its Guardian™ Sensor 3, as part of the MiniMed™ 670G system. If the FDA approves a sensor with non-adjunctive labeling, it means that a sensor is accurate enough to be used to calculate an insulin dose for meals and to correct high glucose levels. Since Medicare requires a non-adjunctive label for sensor reimbursement, if approved, this labeling could broaden patient access by allowing for Medicare coverage of the world’s first and still the only commercially available hybrid closed loop system.
