  WINNIPEG The 2021 budget in Manitoba has some good news for young adults and children who suffer from Type 1 diabetes. Budget 2021 includes funding to establish a new program to pay for the cost of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices for eligible children and youth under the age of 25, said Scott Fielding, finance minister of Manitoba. He added the government is also increasing the age limit for the insulin pump program from 18 to 25. Dr. Nick Hajidiacos is a board member with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) and works at St. Boniface Hospital.
