Diabetes treatment is expensive. Many people who have
diabetes need help paying some of the bills. It's a good
idea to start by looking for an insurance plan that covers
as many diabetes-related expenses as possible. A variety
of governmental and nongovernmental programs exist to
help, depending on whether you qualify. |

A person with diabetes needs access to supplies like test
strips, meters and insulin. Usually, people are able to
get these medications and supplies covered through their
health insurance policies. For a
person with diabetes, obtaining and keeping health insurance
can be very difficult or -- sadly -- impossible to do.
However, there may be other options available. To learn
about your options, please see this page from the ADA.
