More online diabetes help for Medicare
You would be able to use online or distance-learning Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program (MDPP) services from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2029. An entity would be allowed to participate in MDPP by offering only online or distance-learning services if it meets MDPP supplier enrollment rules. For online MDPP services given to a beneficiary who was in a different State, the supplier would be able to submit a payment claim and would not be denied payment solely because the beneficiary was located in another State. During this period, individuals would have no limit on how many times they may enroll in MDPP. The bill would let the Department of Health and Human Services implement these rules by program instruction and would use the definitions in 42 C.F.R. § 410.79(b).
