Vermont H0207 mandates health insurance coverage for diabetes treatment, including equipment, supplies, and outpatient self-management training.

Vermont H0207 amends health insurance regulations to ensure comprehensive coverage for diabetes treatment. This includes equipment, supplies, and outpatient self-management training, such as medical nutrition therapy, for insulin-dependent diabetes, insulin-using diabetes, gestational diabetes, and noninsulin-dependent diabetes. The bill prohibits insurers from imposing any cost-sharing requirements, such as deductibles, coinsurance, or co-payments, on these benefits. It also removes the requirement for insurers to contract with specific health care professionals for diabetes treatment.
