This is great news for the healthcare system because it is going to drive down costs for people with diabetes who really need these things. Well done Dexcom!
This OTC model limits the measurements to every 15 mins instead of every 5 for the prescription version; this will limit its ability to be integrated into open source automated insulin delivery systems. Not sure why they made this choice as the hardware looks the same as the Dexcom G7. In theory they could be doing it to increase battery life or allow for cheaper batteries to be used in the consumer version.
