Effective April 15, 2026, Cigna’s MDC 10 (Endocrinology & Metabolism — Diabetes/Thyroid) policy 0558 was updated to add related coverage resource links and to map specific Category III CPT codes to those resources. The update explicitly identifies Diabetes Equipment and Supplies as a related policy and maps Category III codes 0446T, 0447T, and 0448T to that policy as medically necessary for certain indications. Multiple other related policies are listed with their own Category III code cross-references, but clinical indications, coverage limits, and benefit language are not included in this excerpt. Use policy 0558 as an index to locate detailed equipment/supply coverage and the clinical criteria in the referenced Diabetes Equipment and Supplies policy.
