Your Insurance May Be Required by Law to Cover Your Diabetes Care and Supplies

As of December 2005, forty-six states have some type of laws requiring health insurance coverage to include treatment for diabetes. Most states require coverage of both direct treatment and the costs of diabetes treatment equipment and supplies often used by the patient at home.  The states not included are Alabama, Idaho, North Dakota and Ohio.   The laws in three other states are limited to requiring that insurers offer coverage, but not necessarily include the coverage in all active policies - Mississippi, Missouri and Washington.
