Ultrahuman Details
Product changed: M2 Live launched in the US on 18 June 2026, built on Abbott's Lingo CGM, replacing the earlier M1. $99/month for 2 sensors (introductory pricing), or $129 for a single sensor one-time. NO PRESCRIPTION is required, unlike the earlier M1 which needed one. Bundled with Ultrahuman Premium and Jade AI insights. A one-year plan exists shipping 26 sensors in four batches every 10 weeks, but Ultrahuman does not publish its price, so the annual figure here is 12 x the monthly rate and is likely an overestimate.
FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus Details
Now sold as the FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus: Abbott's US product page describes only the Plus, and the original 14-day Libre 3 is gone, so accuracy figures published for that earlier sensor do not carry over. Abbott publishes no cash price, so none is listed here. Abbott's only published figures are that most covered patients pay $0-$20, and that commercially insured or uninsured patients asked to pay over $75 for two sensors should use the copay card - an effective ceiling near $900/year for eligible patients. The copay card excludes Medicare, Medicaid and other federal or state programme beneficiaries. Supply is two 15-day sensors per 30-day pharmacy fill. Water resistant to 1 metre for up to 30 minutes, notably weaker than several competitors.
