Ah...medtronic...the 'artificial pancreas' maker that wouldn't work with my insurance company and sent me through 3 months of hoop jumping lined with lies and empty promises. The process to get an insulin pump is monstrous and practically inhumane. Vultures.

I guess that "too small to matter" medical device tax that was part of Obamacare really does matter after all hmm?
