I would love to know the percentage of Afrezza sales that come from the Vdex locations. I didn't realize they were up to six standalone locations. Any info about the ones owned by others and/or inside doctor offices, are there a significant number of those?

Does anyone know the total numbers of Vdexiabetes are so far? Canoga Park, CA Beverly Hills, CA Whittier, CA Espanola, NM Texas Alamogordo, NM. Oct 15th. I may be missing another one:-) Those are the standalone, then there are other ones owned by other people, and the ones inside doctors offices. Glad they are doing so well. We love VDex

Any info about the ones owned by others and/or inside doctor offices, are there a significant number of those? I've often wondered the same thing. My guess based on sluggish sales growth is: "a lot". Seems Vdex is the only entity/organization championing Afrezza outside of Mannkind and grow with VDex is slow and steady, which probably mirrors Afrezza sales. I think that'll eventually change, but for now, "it is what it is".

Both entities can smell success around the corner... that’s why they keep working their butts off, opening more locations or hiring more reps:-)

As far as their locations I posted them in this thread above but I don’t have the addresses.

It appears that they don't want people to just walk into the facility and they can't help them at that point. They want people to contact them and they can make an appointment for initial contact.
Makes sense to me.

Makes sense to me. I would think they'd want as many people as possible to come in, whenever and however. Once you get them in the door then figure out how to help them.

I don't see how they attract patients. They don't appear to advertise anywhere except on twitter, facebook, and their website. They don't accept insurance: www.healthpocket.com/facility-finder/vdex-diabetes-nmbrown-y6jju#.W8UIW19G3AU There appears to be only one phone number that can be used to schedule an appointment. And the new office in Espagnola is in a tiny, dirty little strip mall that certainly wouldn't attract my attention.

tomtabb: On their website they state that they get paid through insurance and cash patients. This was copied and pasted from the website's Licensing Program tab: "HOW WE GET PAID
We do this at no cost to you. We bill as any other medical clinic would through insurance and take on cash patients."
The link you posted doesn't work. Do you have another or other evidence they don't take health insurance? Thanks

Thanks You are correct, I missed that part of his post, yes they bill insurance. And they fight for patients just like Mannkind care does when they get denied.
