If you are Diabetic and qualify, you may be entitled to a pair of Diabetic shoes and inserts every year. The Diabetic shoe program thru Medicare (and many other insurances) provides Diabetic shoes and inserts to those patients that may be at risk due to a number of different reasons. The styles of Diabetic shoes have improved tremendously over the past decade and there is no longer just one type of shoe that will qualify. In general Diabetic shoes are made from a lighter construction with a deeper toe box and often times a non-skid sole.
