Medically Modern widens diabetes supply coverage after Mid-Island deal

Medically Modern said its acquisition of Mid-Island Medical Supply has expanded insurance coverage from Medicare to nearly every major commercial and public payer. The move should make it easier for patients nationwide to get continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps through their existing plans.

Why it matters: - The expanded payer network removes a common barrier for patients trying to get continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps. - More patients can now use in-network coverage instead of being blocked by plan restrictions. - Medically Modern says the network now covers more than 85% of US lives.

What happened: - Medically Modern announced that its acquisition of Mid-Island Medical Supply expanded the company’s coverage beyond Medicare. - The transaction closed on October 31, 2025. - The acquired contracts include Aetna, Cigna, Humana, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Fidelis Care, the NYSHIP Empire Plan, New York Medicaid and Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield. - Financial terms were not disclosed.

The details: - Medically Modern is a nationwide home-delivery provider of continuous glucose monitors, insulin pumps and related diabetes supplies. - The company helps patients verify coverage, navigate prior authorization and other insurance requirements, and receive supplies at home. - Medically Modern serves more than 2,000 patients across all 50 states. - Mid-Island Medical Supply has served patients since 1953. - Mid-Island Medical Supply provides durable medical equipment, mobility equipment, custom surgical compression garments, orthotics and post-mastectomy products. - Mid-Island Medical Supply has been accredited by The Joint Commission since 1998.

Between the lines: - Corey Deutsch, founder and CEO of Medically Modern, said coverage is the main constraint in this market. - Deutsch said patients can have a prescription for a CGM and still fail to get one if the supplier is not in network. - The acquisition gives Medically Modern a broader route to serve patients whose previous plans were out of network.

What's next: - Medically Modern will use the expanded contracts to reach more patients with diabetes supply needs. - The company is headquartered in New York, New York, and says more information is available at Medically Modern. - Media contact: records@medicallymodern.com

The bottom line: - The acquisition turns Medically Modern from a Medicare-focused supplier into one with access to nearly all major payers, significantly broadening its addressable patient base.
