What are Medicares requirements for covering diabetes testing supplies?
Medicare requires you or your caregiver to authorize a refill of your diabetes testing supplies before delivery to you. You should not pay for supplies you did not authorize. All Medicare-enrolled suppliers (such as DiabeticSupplies.com) must submit claims for diabetic testing supplies. You cannot send in the claim yourself. A Doctor’s Order must be on file with the supplier (i.e., DiabeticSupplies.com). It must be signed and dated by the treating doctor.
