As in insulin pens\needles + test strips + insulin ? Currently mine only covers 90% of monthly insulin costs. They don't seem to acknowledge regular daily testing as a critical part of type 1 treatment. They think insulin is enough! I am just really annoyed with the mentality of the medical insurance doctors, they know that you need daily testing but they wont cover test strips. It's as if testing is a luxury, while infact its a necessity type 1s cannot live without. .
