Have your say: Type 2 CGM subsidy

Speak up on the MSAC Type 2 CGM subsidy survey. Your voice matters.

This is it.

You have an important opportunity to influence the future of CGM subsidies for Australians living with type 2 diabetes. The Australian Government is seeking public input, and your story is important.

Why your voice is crucial

In 2024, the Parliamentary Inquiry into Diabetes called for expanded CGM subsidies, especially for people with type 2 insulin-requiring diabetes. 

The Medical Services Advisory Committee (MSAC) subsequently held a public consultation in 2025 to hear directly from the diabetes community about how expanded CGM subsidies would improve their lives. Many Australians stepped forward and shared their stories.

The response was powerful, but MSAC deferred its decision, requiring more evidence and more stories before a decision could be made.

This is your chance to influence real change.

MSAC’s public consultation period is now open and closes 12 June 2026.
Your submission will help shape a future where CGM is more accessible, affordable and equitable for Australians with type 2 diabetes.

If you made a submission in 2025, thank you. If anything has since changed, we encourage you to submit again. Every updated experience strengthens the case for change.

Your voice deserves to be heard. 

Take action now. It only takes a few minutes.

 

STEP 1: Visit the MSAC consultation survey

STEP 2: Share your experience

You can shine a light on the realities of living with diabetes. You may want to share:

  • What daily diabetes management looks like for you

  • Any challenges with finger pricking/blood glucose monitoring

  • Your experience with Libre CGM (or seeing someone you love use it)

  • The difference subsidised CGM access would make for you or others with type 2 diabetes

This is the moment to be heard.

Australians living with type 2 diabetes need equitable access to CGM.
By taking a few minutes to share your story, you’re helping to make that a reality.
