The sensors allow better control and management of diabetes.

People with proper diabetic control are less likely to require hospitalisation or other costly treatment for all the bad stuff associated with poor sugar control.

Totally agree that you shouldn't drive if you aren't in control of sugar levels but disagree on sensors not being healthcare.

Top of line ones aren’t, just like the bus example, there is other just as viable cheaper options. If someone wants to drive, that’s on them to afford the more expensive one so they can utilize their privilege to drive.
