Not To Be To Nosey, When It Comes To Everyone's Insurance.

When it comes to everyone's insurance on here , did your insurance pay for diabetic nutrition school, so far the different insurances that I had from one to another never has.

In Ontario Canada our provincial system pays for Diabetes classes (if available), consulting with a dietitian, all doctor/lab visits for everything diabetes

If you are young, retired or have modest income then they also cover most of the cost of meds and testing supplies (less a co-pay), for everyone else you either pay out of pocket or would need coverage with private insurance to cover meds and testing supplies

But all "services" are covered (of course it's sucked out of us in taxes but you don't pay out of pocket when you use the service)
