Scott was diagnosed with type one in 2009. Today, you’re going to hear from the filmmaker Scott Ruderman and Rachael Dyer. If that last bit sounds familiar, that’s Nicole Holt Smith, who I’ve had on the show her son Alec died after rationing insulin, and that audio is from her arrest at a protest at Eli Lilly headquarters in 2019. There’s a lot going on, and my guests this week are hoping that their documentary film will help educate people and make a difference. As I’ve said for years, though, I think it’s going to take state and federal legislation to see real systemic change, you still need to jump through a lot of hoops, you still need to know that this is out there, you still need to find coupons in many cases, or you need to, you know, have really good insurance. We’re seeing some interesting action on the cash price of insulin at the pharmacy. Between that and Walmart’s deal with Novo Nordisk, which lets Walmart price Novolog, same exact Insulet Novolog. And that’s the previous podcast episode two this one, I explained Lily’s new move to drop the price of insulin lispro. My son Benny was diagnosed with type one right before he turned to almost 15 years ago. You know we aim to educate and inspire about diabetes with a focus on people who use insulin and insulin access and affordability as you heard is what this week’s episode is all about. Welcome to another week of the show always so glad to have you here.
If you have those kinds of questions, please contact your health care provider. This podcast is not intended as medical advice. We’ll talk to Rachael and Scott who lives with type one about their experience making this film and why they think it could make a difference. I was left in shock and disbelief, and we just looked at each other as we walked out and said it’s time now to make this documentary. Where he was paying at home in America up to $450 a vial out of pocket then to have the same vial same manufacturer same everything brought to him for $21 in Canada and to watch Scott just break down and start crying there in the pharmacy and for myself as well. Rachael Dyer and Scott Ruderman had an experience in Canada that made them say, we got to do this, This week, a new documentary in the works to show people outside the diabetes community the struggle of insulin access and affordability.
