Diabetes, insulin dependent

Also called type 1 diabetes, insulin-dependent diabetes occurs when a person’s pancreas doesn’t produce insulin (insulin is needed to convert glucose (sugar) into energy for the body). Insulin-dependent diabetes usually begins in childhood or adolescence. Note: Estimates include one year of care for treating insulin-dependent diabetes (for example, physician visits, tests, medication and supplies, etc.)

Note: The estimates below are based on Medica Choice network contract rates. How were these costs calculated?
