What kind of engagement is required when having an insulin pump? Yeah, so most of the requirements from Managers England would be, if you want to have continued funding for your pump, you have to turn up to all your appointments and also be able to prove that you're engaged with all the elements of the service, essentially meaning turning up to a consultant, seeing the dietician, specialist nurse, if we ask you to see a psychologist, because your future funding is strictly reliant on your compliance and if you're not compliant you automatically lose access to pump therapy and this is DTN UK and NHS England guidance.
