Services To Prevent Diabetes Out of Reach for Many California Residents
Californians diagnosed with pre-diabetes have few options to help manage and control their blood sugar levels because Medicare and many private insurers do not offer diabetes prevention services. In addition, California opted out of an Affordable Care Act grant that would have increased access to diabetes prevention care for low-income individuals enrolled in Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program.
