Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
Expands access to the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program by requiring Medicare to let organizations offer it fully online from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2030. Online providers must meet existing supplier rules, can bill even when a beneficiary lives in another state, and will use the address listed on their diabetes prevention recognition record for administrative purposes. It also removes any limit on how many times a beneficiary can enroll in the program. This aims to make prevention services easier to join and repeat when needed, especially for people who prefer or require remote options.
The Secretary of Health and Human Services must revise the regulations under parts 410 and 424 of title 42, Code of Federal Regulations not later than January 1, 2026 so that the changes in this section apply for the period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2030.
An entity may participate in the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program (MDPP) by offering only online MDPP services using synchronous or asynchronous technology or telecommunications, provided the entity meets the conditions for enrollment as an MDPP supplier in section 424.205(b) of title 42, Code of Federal Regulations (or a successor regulation).
If an entity participates as an online-only MDPP supplier, the administrative location of the entity must be the address on file under the Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program.
An online MDPP supplier may submit a claim for payment for services provided to an MDPP beneficiary who was not located in the same State as the supplier at the time the services were furnished; the supplier must not be prohibited from submitting a claim solely because the beneficiary was in a different State.
No limit is applied on the number of times an individual may enroll in the MDPP during the covered period.
