Making Sense of Rising Diabetes Costs
In November of 2021, the ADA held its first-ever virtual Cost of Care Summit. A diverse group of leading policymakers, people with diabetes, clinicians, advocates, and industry stakeholders to discuss the deep and unparalleled cost of living with diabetes—from the price of insulin and other drugs to the costs borne as a result of certain insurance practices, to the costs of hospitalization and outpatient treatment, to the enormous expense of devices and supplies, diabetes places, and outsized burden on those afflicted with the disease.
