relative to requiring insurance coverage for glucose monitoring devices for people with diabetes.

This bill requires insurance companies in New Hampshire to cover specific diabetes supplies and services for both individual and group health plans. It mandates that insurers provide coverage for glucose monitoring devices, such as continuous and traditional blood glucose monitors, along with necessary supplies like sensors and test strips, without requiring prior authorization or an endocrinology referral. The legislation also sets a maximum $30 copayment for insulin prescriptions and limits the out-of-pocket cost for diabetes equipment to $30 per 30-day supply, ensuring these items are not subject to deductibles. While the bill includes requirements for patients to attend follow-up care with their doctors every six months for the first 18 months and annually thereafter, it guarantees coverage for new FDA-approved devices without imposing restrictions based on insulin usage or testing frequency.
