How You Manage Your Diabetes - A main factor in the cost of insurance for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes is how well they manage their diabetes. If you have a lower A1C, good blood glucose control, lead a healthy lifestyle, and do not have complications from diabetes, chances are your rate will be more reasonable too.
Find an agent that is experienced in obtaining policies for individuals with "Impaired Risk" - they will know what carriers may offer you a policy and which one(s) may not. Locate a licensed agent with access to carriers specializing in insuring diabetics.
The Insulin-Resistance Diet by Cheryle R. Hart and Mary Kay Grossman is the best-selling book that has helped thousands of people overcome insulin resistance and lose weight. This book provides a life-long livable eating plan that shows you how to lose weight safely and easily because it links carbs and proteins to control blood sugar and insulin spokes.
If have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes, your doctor should refer you to a certified diabetic educator or dietician so that you can learn how to improve your sugars through diet. In some instances, medications or insulin may be prescribed to help you regain control and reduce your risk of maternal and fetal complications. It is very important that you take your diagnosis seriously to reduce the risk of harming your baby.
Don't take no for an answer - Just because one carrier rates or declines your application does not mean that another company will not look at you more favorably. Persistence may help you find the right insurance plan. One recent study on diabetes indicates type 2 diabetes, well controlled or not, results in a high occurrence of heart disease. Heart attacks and strokes are the leading cause of death among type 2 diabetics and the American Diabetes Association suggests that the rate of death among diabetics due to heart disease may be as high as 75%. Maybe underwriters are putting too much emphasis on lowering glucose numbers, possibly putting too high an emphasis on a low hbA1c. Insurance companies may become less stringent about glucose levels, but may adjust mortality tables to reflect the high occurrence of heart disease in people with diabetes.
