Updates to Coverage of Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs):

Effective August 29, 2024, MO HealthNet will expand coverage of Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) to participants currently diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes allowing this vulnerable population to obtain a CGM without a prior authorization.  Claims for a CGM will auto-approve if the participant has had a gestational diabetes diagnosis billed to MO HealthNet recently OR if the pharmacy submits the appropriate gestational diabetes diagnosis code with the claim.

As a reminder, any MO HealthNet participant who currently utilizes insulin can also obtain a CGM without a prior authorization.
