Step 1: The healthcare provider who supports the management of the individual’s diabetes must complete the Confirmation of Medical Eligibility for Glucose Monitoring Sensor Coverage form with them, and submit the completed form directly to the NBIPP business office. This can include a diabetes specialist, GP/FP, Nurse Practitionner, or Certified Diabetes Educator.

Step 2: The individual must also complete the Application for Continuous Glucose Monitoring Sensor Coverage form. This form will collect information on health insurance coverage (if applicable), household income and household size that is used to determine financial eligibility and client contribution amount. They must submit the completed form, along with supporting documentation directly to the NBIPP business office.

 It is recommended that individuals check their private health insurance before applying for coverage.  Each insurer must provide them with details on the coverage for the continuous glucose monitoring system. This information is needed to complete the application form and is considered when calculating the amount that will be covered by the program.
