health coverage; diabetes; monitor; supplies
HB 2083 requires Arizona health plans (specifically "accountable health plans") to cover medically necessary diabetes equipment and supplies prescribed by a healthcare provider. This includes blood glucose monitors (with special provisions for the legally blind), test strips, insulin, continuous glucose monitors for Type 1 diabetes, syringes, lancets, and other diabetes-related devices. The bill does not mandate coverage for non-medically necessary items, supplies obtained without a prescription, or eliminate cost-sharing like deductibles. It directly affects Arizona residents with diabetes who are enrolled in these specific health plans.

MODERATE
The bill was reformatted from an introduced draft to a final engrossed version, updating the title to reflect the specific supplies covered. The core policy requirements remained largely the same, but the list of covered items was expanded to include insulin pens, automated insulin delivery systems, and continuous glucose monitoring equipment with more detailed component descriptions. Minor text corrections were made to fix capitalization errors and improve the clarity of the legal language.
Scope change
The scope of covered supplies was expanded to include specific new technologies like insulin pumps and automated delivery systems, while the applicability to accountable health plans remained unchanged.
REQUIREMENT
Updated the list of covered supplies to include insulin pens, automated insulin delivery systems, and continuous glucose monitors with specific components like readers and receivers.
Revised the description of oral agents to explicitly include 'self-injectable medications' for better clarity.
TECHNICAL
Corrected capitalization errors in the 'Nothing in Subsection A' clause (e.g., changed 'DOES NOT' to 'does not' and 'ENTITLE' to 'Entitle').
Adjusted the numbering sequence in the list of covered items to resolve duplicate item numbers.
Updated the document header and title to match the final engrossed version format.
