Florida S0784 would require Medicaid to cover continuous glucose monitors as a durable medical equipment benefit.

Florida S0784 mandates the Agency for Health Care Administration to seek federal approval to cover continuous glucose monitors and related supplies as a durable medical equipment benefit under Medicaid. Licensed providers must be reimbursed for these supplies, with claims submitted through the Medicare Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System. The bill prohibits the use of a National Drug Code number for these claims. It also allows for additional coverage of continuous glucose monitors as a Medicaid pharmacy benefit.
