A patch-pump assisting system configured to at least function to insert a cannula in tissue comprising:
- a housing;
- a disposable part (DP) of a patch-pump drug delivery system removably affixed to the housing;
- a notch or opening formed in a side of the housing and configured to receive at least a reusable part (RP) of the patch-pump drug delivery device;
- an insertion mechanism configured to insert a cannula upon activation thereof;
- a cannula cap configured to seal a groove in the proximal end of the cannula;
- wherein:
- the cannula is configured with at least two openings, a first opening configured for priming the patch-pump and a second opening configured to deliver the drug once inserted into tissue.
