What to know

The hardware cost of generating CGM data for an adult not on insulin, not a price for data that already exists; the page states 77.1% of biosensors lasted the full 14 days, so the cost per recorded day is somewhat higher.

Arithmetic

$89 / (2 biosensors x 14 days) = $3.18 per sensor-day. The 2-week trial ($54, 1 biosensor) is $54 / 14 = $3.86; the 12-week subscription ($249, 6 biosensors) is $249 / 84 = $2.96 per sensor-day.
