MiniMed pump costs
M. D.,
I have a MiniMed pump and I have asked them (MiniMed) about the guarentee.
As I understand it the pump is indeed serviced free for four years. If you
have a failure or even an unknown problem they will encourage you to return
the pump and they will send you another pump. You may either keep the
replacement or just use it until your pump is returned. This is all done
free of charge during the first four years of pump ownership.
After four years the owner will be charged a nominal fee for pump
maintenance. I don’t know all the fees but I remember reading that $500
will get an overhaul with a one year guarentee. I am working on memory so
I may be mistaken.
