Questions
How can I qualify for diabetic shoes?
Qualification requires a physician's prescription and Medicare or insurance coverage. We help verify eligibility and process paperwork for insurance-covered footwear.
What makes diabetic shoes different from regular shoes?
They feature specialized insoles and construction to reduce pressure points, prevent skin breakdown, and accommodate foot deformities common in diabetes patients.
How does continuous glucose monitoring work?
A small sensor inserted under the skin measures glucose levels continuously. Users scan the sensor with a smartphone app to get real-time readings without finger sticks.
Are these services covered by insurance?
Medicare and many private insurers cover both diabetic shoes (once yearly) and CGM systems. We assist with insurance verification and billing processes.
What foot complications do diabetic shoes prevent?
They help prevent calluses, blisters, skin breakdowns, and potentially severe ulcers that could lead to amputation if left untreated.
