The chances are this is unlikely, for legal reasons: Medtronic creates regulated medical devices. I wonder whether it would be possible to add something along the lines of "push this (software/hardware) button to allow non-regulated 3rd-party hardware and software to begin controlling your medical device, but doing so will bind you to <insert waiver here>" and get such functionality to pass FDA approval. I somehow suspect not, although I would be very happy to hear otherwise.

As things stand now, though, it sounds like (as the article suggests, with the picture of a "hacked pump") people are still relying on methods and techniques that it sounds like anyone can use. So yes, unfortunately everyone's in a situation where any adversary within Bluetooth range could probably take the device over, and (depending on the severity of the vulnerability being used) perhaps modify the pump itself to pump too much or too little regardless of inputs, or similar.

Quite an uncomfortable situation from a security perspective. :/
