Bill overview
This bill, the Prevent Diabetes Act, aims to expand access to diabetes prevention programs by allowing online and virtual programs recognized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to participate in the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program Expanded Model. It directs the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to update regulations to accommodate these virtual programs, ensuring they meet the same standards as in-person programs. This will increase the availability of evidence-based diabetes prevention services for individuals at risk.
