An entity may take part by offering the program online only
“an entity may participate in the MDPP by offering only MDPP services via distance learning or online delivery modalities if such entity meets the conditions for enrollment as an MDPP supplier;”
Section 6214 provides that, for the period from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2029, an entity may take part in the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program by offering its services only through distance learning or online delivery, so long as it meets the conditions for enrollment as a supplier.
What the document actually says
“an entity may participate in the MDPP by offering only MDPP services via distance learning or online delivery modalities if such entity meets the conditions for enrollment as an MDPP supplier;”
That sentence, in plain words
A group may join the program and give all of its classes online. It must still meet the rules for signing up as a supplier.
What this is about
The letters MDPP name a program that helps people avoid diabetes. It has been taught in person. Now a group may teach it only online.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
