Health committee  No, they're not covered in Canada right now.

Health committee  I think it's a brilliant idea. Speaking as somebody who actually fills out the form, any time you can simplify or automate the process...it's essentially filling out the same information on 10 separate sheets. I'm very excited about this. I have not thought about this previously

Health committee  I'm not sure exactly where the name Reliq comes from. I came on board afterwards. Thank you very much, members of the committee, for having me here today. I appreciate being part of this conversation on diabetes management in Canada. I'm a front-line practitioner. I practise in
