Hawaii SB838 mandates health insurers to cover continuous glucose monitors for diabetes patients.
Hawaii SB838 aims to improve diabetes management by requiring all health insurers, including those under Medicaid, to cover continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). CGMs provide real-time data on blood glucose levels, helping patients avoid dangerous fluctuations and reduce long-term complications. The bill mandates coverage for CGMs and related supplies for all policies, contracts, plans, or agreements issued or renewed after December 31, 2025. The Department of Human Services is tasked with seeking necessary federal authorization and waivers to implement this Act.
