Arkansas Pharmacy Laws and Regulations Practice Exam

What are diabetic patients entitled to, at the expense of their health insurance policy, when determined to be medically necessary?

1. A yearly diabetes health check

2. A lifetime supply of insulin

3. A diabetes self-management training program (once per lifetime)

4. Unlimited access to diabetic dietary supplements

The correct answer is: A diabetes self-management training program (once per lifetime)

Diabetic patients are entitled to receive a diabetes self-management training program, as determined by their health insurance policy. This option is considered medically necessary for proper management and treatment of diabetes. While options A and D may be beneficial for diabetic patients, they are not necessarily considered medically necessary and may not be covered by insurance. Option B, a lifetime supply of insulin, may also be important for diabetic patients, but it is not the only necessary aspect of managing the condition. Therefore, option C is the most accurate answer.
