Type 2 Diabetes

Insurance/Financial Questions

With your doctor’s prescription, your insurance company should cover your meter and supplies to check your blood sugar. For the lowest co-pay, call the customer service number to ask if there is a particular brand you should use.

With your doctor’s referral, diabetes education at your hospital’s diabetes center should also be a covered benefit, but call your health plan’s customer service number to make sure, and to see what your out-of-pocket costs will be.
