Type 2 Diabetes and Health Insurance in America…the God’s Honest Truth

“Will my health insurance pay for this?”  This is a common question that I am asked when I meet with patients.  My answer to this is…”your health insurance is currently doing the best it will ever do for this disease.”  That’s when a patient will look down to the list of 4,5, 12 and sometimes over 20 medications that they are on…and that list continues to grow.

The unfortunate reality is that health insurance as we know it, will continue to get worse in this country, not better.  You can look at the trends that health insurance has taken…higher deductibles, restrictions of treatment, and more and more restriction and…less and less coverage.  Health insurance companies in the United States are a FOR PROFIT industry who hold a responsibility to its shareholders, more so than the people they insure…and that’s the God’s honest truth.

If you want to lower and get control of your blood sugar, this is a responsibility you must take head on and not rely on your health insurance to save you.  If you do, you will die due to your Type 2 Diabetes.

If you are reading this and you are the one who has Type 2 Diabetes or your loved one has Type 2 Diabetes, think of that person in a burning house…what would you do to get that person out?  I would guess that most of you would say, “ANYTHING!”  That is the type of urgency and action needed to beat and reverse Type 2 Diabetes.  Reversing Type 2 Diabetes is possible.  If you are committed, I can help show you the way.
