Special Benefits for People with Diabetes

At BayCarePlus Medicare Advantage, we believe our members should be able to have affordable, easy access to benefits that’ll help them effectively manage their diabetes and avoid serious illness. The cost of insulin, testing supplies and other necessary items for diabetes should not be a barrier to getting the care you need. That’s why we’ve developed expanded benefits for our members with diabetes starting January 1, 2022.

Any BayCarePlus member who’s been diagnosed with diabetes and who’s a member of the BayCarePlus Complete or Premier plan will receive these new benefits.
