Thank Your Representative for Helping to Renew the Special Diabetes Program

JDRF emailed me to let me know that the U.S. House of Representatives approved a one-year extension of the Special Diabetes Program (SDP), at the current funding level of $150 million, as part of the 'Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014' (H.R. 4302).  The U.S. Senate is now expected to consider the legislation by Monday, March 31st.
