HR 1523

This bill, the Prevent Diabetes Act, extends the authorization for Medicare to offer virtual diabetes prevention services through the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program. Currently, these services are available virtually through December 31, 2027, but this legislation extends that permission until December 31, 2030, allowing more Medicare beneficiaries to access this important program remotely. The bill ensures that virtual providers meet specific requirements and that beneficiaries can receive services regardless of their location. It also removes limits on how many times an individual can enroll in the program.
