Yeah.

And then...

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

For the payers themselves, I mean, for them, they see some benefit of that as well because there's, I mean, maybe, how would I want to put this?

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence

There's less risk involved of having to pay that upfront payment, right?

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence

And so like that, when you see that $3,000 payment and then they switch,

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence

the payers are eating that cost, right?

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

Very interesting.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

And then, you know, kind of then going back to the patients that benefit from this.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

I mean, we talked about in the, with the pivotal trial, how sicker patients benefited from it as much as kind of the, you know, patients that are, you know, more into the treatment beforehand.

But, you know, we also talked about the type one and the type two market.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

You know, we talked about, you know, roughly the same size, but different

access points for those patients.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

The other interesting thing that I've taken from this is that while technically the islet doesn't have a label for the type 2, during your earning calls, you're highlighting how these primary care physicians are still prescribing it to those patients.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

And you're mentioning a significant amount of patients, almost up to 30%, if I remember correctly, that of your new patients are actually type 2.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence

So...

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

Well, one winded way of asking about how is those, you know, how are those approaches different for the type one patients and the type two patients?

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

Yeah.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

And you know, it's interesting too, because I mean, I believe you guys are considering a type two label, um,

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence
Beta Bionics Does the Work to Reduce Insulin Pump Burden

Yeah, I can see the benefits in one way or the other.

Vanguards of Health Care by Bloomberg Intelligence

On one hand, you're already reaching out to the, not you, but the doctors are already reaching out to those type two patients.
