(08) 6110 0570admin@pdchealthhub.com.auAbbott's 15-day sensor built for MiniMed systems, with a one-hour warm-up. Sold in the United States and Europe. It is not available in Australia and not on the NDSS.

MiniMed Instinct is a 15-day continuous glucose monitoring sensor made by Abbott and sold by MiniMed for use with its own systems. It warms up in about an hour, is worn on the back of the upper arm, and has no separate transmitter or overtape.
Overseas it works with the MiniMed 780G pump, the newer MiniMed Flex pump, and the MiniMed Go smart injection system. It was cleared in the United States with the 780G in September 2025, launched in Europe in June 2026, and started shipping in the United States with MiniMed Flex in August 2026.
It is not available in Australia. People here using a MiniMed 780G use Guardian 4, which is subsidised through the NDSS, or Simplera Sync, which is approved by the TGA and bought privately. We will update this page if MiniMed announces an Australian launch.
Our credentialled diabetes educators can talk through what this means for your system and whether a change would suit you.
There is no Australian funding pathway for this sensor because it is not sold here. In Australia the MiniMed 780G runs on Guardian 4, which is NDSS subsidised, and Simplera Sync is available privately. If MiniMed announces an Australian launch, an NDSS listing would be a separate decision after that.
Our credentialled diabetes educators can help you weigh up sensors, check NDSS eligibility and get started with confidence.
Book a CDE consultThrough the NDSS a sensor costs a fraction of the self-funded price, but not everyone is eligible. This is how access works in Australia, checked against the NDSS in September 2026.
Everyone living with type 1 diabetes can apply for subsidised CGM through the NDSS. People under 21 with a rare condition very similar to type 1 diabetes who need insulin may also be eligible. You need to be registered with the NDSS first.
An authorised health professional confirms you are eligible: an endocrinologist, a credentialled diabetes educator, or another health professional who specialises in diabetes, such as a physician, paediatrician or nurse practitioner. Our credentialled diabetes educators can do this at your appointment.
You collect sensors from an NDSS Access Point, usually a community pharmacy, and most people pay a co-payment for each sensor. There is no co-payment for people under 21, for adults with a Commonwealth concession card or a DVA Gold or White Card, or for people with type 1 diabetes who are planning a pregnancy, pregnant or have recently had a baby. The co-payment for this sensor is shown alongside.
Your NDSS access lists the sensor you are approved for. Before you can order a different one, an authorised health professional needs to update your access. If you use your sensor with an insulin pump, check the pump works with the new sensor before you change.
CGM is not currently subsidised through the NDSS for type 2 diabetes, so sensors are self-funded. Some people find a few weeks of CGM useful to see how food, activity and medicines affect their glucose. Ask us whether it is worth the cost for you.
A CGM measures glucose in the fluid under the skin, so it runs a few minutes behind your blood glucose, most of all when levels are changing quickly. If your symptoms do not match the reading, during warm-up, or when your system asks for one, check with a finger-prick test and act on that result. Keep your meter and strips on hand.
