Long answer is that the sensors cost $80 each and are supposed to be changed every week. Some people stretch them out to 2 weeks. The transmitter lasts about a year and costs $800.

Worth every penny. My son's A1C has been between 6 and 6.7 since we started using it. We are very lucky to have the means to pay for it.

Edit: You have to own a compatible cell phone as well. Pretty much any phone from the last 4 years work. Android or Apple.
It's a testament to a lot of hard work and diligence to get a young kid's a1c there
