Diabetes Act

This bill, known as the DIABETES Act, aims to improve Medicare coverage for diabetes technology and education services. It would require Medicare to continue covering diabetes devices like continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps when beneficiaries enroll in the program, preventing loss of access during enrollment transitions. The legislation also expands coverage for diabetes self-management training services, removes deductibles for these services, and authorizes virtual training options. Additionally, it directs the government to study barriers to diabetes care access and establish new billing codes for insulin pump training services.
