Hypoglycemia Unawareness changes the picture when it comes to Blood Glucose Meters. Documented hypoglycemia unawareness is strong clinical justification for CGM coverage under Medicare Part B. Patients managing Hypoglycemia Unawareness often have more intensive monitoring and supply needs than the general diabetic population, which is reflected in broader Medicare coverage criteria for higher-acuity conditions.

Medicare Part B coverage for Blood Glucose Meters
Blood Glucose Meters are covered under Medicare Part B as durable medical equipment (DME) when medically necessary. Coverage requires: a diabetes diagnosis, a prescription from your treating physician, and the supplies must be obtained from a Medicare-enrolled DMEPOS supplier.
With Original Medicare plus a supplemental plan, most patients pay $0 out of pocket for covered Blood Glucose Meters. Even without a supplemental plan, Part B pays 80% of the Medicare-approved amount — significantly below retail pricing.
