Letter to CMS Administrator Seema Verma Requesting Clarification on PHE Waivers

May 30, 2020

To: Administrator Seema Verma

"These waivers and enforcement flexibilities are prudent to protect people with diabetes who are at high-risk for the COVID-19 virus and to ensure they have the diabetes devices they need to manage their disease during this public health crisis. We believe -- and hope that you agree -- that these waivers should apply to all people with diabetes, regardless of respiratory disease status, as part of the mitigation efforts to prevent virus exposure and to preserve capacity and resources within the healthcare system during this pandemic."
