Best for

Anyone told they have prediabetes or a high risk of type 2 diabetes.

Why Kave includes this

This is one of the few prevention programs with strong outcome evidence behind it, it is covered by Medicare and many plans, and many community versions are free. Kave lists the CDC registry rather than any individual provider because recognition is what separates an evidence-based program from a wellness product.

Expected cost
Many community programs are free. Medicare covers the recognised program for eligible beneficiaries, and many commercial plans cover it too.
Insurance requirement
None for many community programs.
Who qualifies
Adults at increased risk of type 2 diabetes, usually established by a blood test or a risk questionnaire.
Where it is available
Nationwide (United States)
How you use it
In person and Online or by phone
Languages
English and Spanish

Limitations Kave wants you to know about

  • Prevention, not treatment — this is for people who do not yet have diabetes.
  • A year-long commitment with regular sessions.
  • Cost and availability vary by provider and location.
