In an infusion pump system that includes a pump that may have a user interface for pump programming, one or more smartphones or other remote control devices that interface with the infusion pump, and/or an automated insulin delivery algorithm, there is a potential conflict between commands such as boluses being programmed on multiple devices and/or calculated by the AID algorithm at the same time. In order to avoid low glucose levels that could result from delivering multiple boluses from these various sources when only one bolus is needed, systems and methods disclosed herein provide a bolus permissions and prioritization scheme that prioritizes boluses programmed with the infusion pump and one or more remote control devices and calculated by a closed loop delivery algorithm.
