The Medicare DPP lasts for two years. It starts with 16 weekly sessions, then 1-2 sessions each month for the rest of a year.

Programs include:

• 16 weekly sessions for 6 months, then monthly sessions for the rest of the 1st year
• A second year of sessions for those who achieve the 5% weight-loss goal
• A lifestyle health coach to deliver program content, help you set goals, and keep you on track
• In-person support and encouragement from a small group

Yes, if you meet the criteria during the 1st year, you can continue the program for a second year.

To be able to start the second year of sessions, you must meet these two criteria in the 1st year:

1. Attend at least 1 in-person session during months 10-12 of the program, and
2. Achieve or maintain at least 5% weight loss during months 10-12

After you start the second year, you must meet these two criteria to continue sessions for the entire second year (months 13–24):

1. Attend at least 2 sessions during the previous 3-month interval, including at least 1 session in-person, and
2. Maintain at least 5% weight loss as compared to the baseline weight recorded at session 1.

No. You will not have to pay anything for the program. There is no copay. Your Medicare plan covers 100% of the cost of the program. Your plan will only cover the program once. That’s why it’s important to make sure you’re ready to participate in the program and commit to working towards its goals.

When you enroll in the program, your Medicare plan may send you an Explanation of Benefits – also known as an EOB. When your plan pays for a service for you, it creates and sends an EOB. On your EOB, the Diabetes Prevention Program may be called an “office visit.”

Yes, if you need to switch to another program, Medicare will let you. Solera may be able to help you switch to a new Medicare DPP provider if one is available in your area.
