Delaware Code § 18-3344D

(a) For purposes of this section, "diabetes equipment and supplies" means blood glucose meters and strips, urine testing strips, syringes,
continuous glucose monitors and supplies, and insulin pump supplies.
(b) An individual health insurance policy, contract, or certificate that is delivered, issued for delivery, renewed, extended, or modified
in this State that provides coverage for any diabetes equipment or supplies must cap the total amount that a covered individual is required
to pay for diabetes equipment and supplies at no more than $35 per month for each enrolled individual, regardless of the amount or types
of diabetes equipment or supplies needed to fill the individual's prescriptions. The $35 per month cap includes deductible payments and
cost-sharing amounts charged once a deductible is met, except that the $35 cap does not apply to deductible payments charged by high
deductible health plans or catastrophic health plans.
(c) Except as provided under subsection (b) of this section, nothing in this section prevents the operation of a policy provision required
by this section as a deductible, coinsurance, allowable charge limitation, coordination of benefits, or a provision restricting coverage to
services by a licensed, certified, or carrier-approved provider or facility.
(d) This section does not apply to any of the following:
(1) Accident-only, specified disease, hospital indemnity, Medicare supplement, long-term care, disability income, or other limited
benefit health insurance policies.
(2) A high deductible health plan if providing coverage under subsection (b) of this section would cause the plan to fail to be treated
as a high deductible health plan under § 223(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C. § 223(c)(2)).
(3) A catastrophic health plan if providing coverage under subsection (b) of this section would cause the plan to fail to be treated as
a catastrophic plan under § 1302(e) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, 42 U.S.C. § 18022(e).
(e) This section applies to all policies, contracts, or certificates issued, renewed, modified, altered, amended, or reissued after December
31, 2023.
