We have some exciting news to share with you! The MO HealthNet Division (MHD) has recently updated its Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) policy. We are pleased to inform you that participants on any insulin (short-acting or basal) can now receive a CGM by automated approval, with no manual paperwork or Prior Authorization process required. This new policy will greatly benefit participants and providers as it streamlines obtaining this important device.
For those interested in learning more about proper CGM use, Dr. Janet McGill will present a free webinar on the topic. This webinar is an excellent opportunity to earn continuing education credits for physicians, pharmacists, and nurses. The CGM for Better Diabetes Management webinar will occur at 12:00 pm on June 27, 2023. We strongly encourage you to register now, as spots are limited. For further information on the updated CGM policy, please review the entire policy available here.
