Medicare Coverage for CGM

Medicare coverage for CGM has been a key priority for the Society. Over the past two years, the Society has met with key officials at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Health and Human Services, and the White House to secure Medicare coverage for CGM. Because Medicare coverage has not been resolved, the Society and its coalition partners worked to introduce the Medicare CGM Access Act last year. The legislation, which was sponsored by Senators Collins and Shaheen and Representatives DeGette and Whitfield, was reintroduced in Congress last month. The Society will continue to work to build support for this important legislation.
