Special Diabetes Program Reauthorization Act of 2025

119th Congress Introduced Sep 18, 2025

Summary

What This Bill Does

The Special Diabetes Program Reauthorization Act of 2025 is a narrow health-research and treatment-continuity bill. It amends section 330B of the Public Health Service Act to continue the Special Diabetes Program for Type I diabetes with $160 million for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030. The funds remain available until expended. The program supports federal work on Type 1 diabetes prevention, treatment, research, and related public-health activities. The practical effect is to give NIH, HHS, diabetes researchers, clinicians, and patient communities five more fiscal years of dedicated program funding rather than letting the authority lapse.

Who Benefits and How

People with Type 1 diabetes benefit because the dedicated Special Diabetes Program funding stream is extended for five fiscal years. Diabetes researchers benefit from $160 million per year in continued program support. Pediatric diabetes clinicians benefit if research and public-health activities improve prevention, treatment, and disease-management tools. Families managing Type 1 diabetes benefit from continuity in federal research and care-improvement work.

Who Bears the Burden and How

HHS diabetes program staff must administer the extended funding through fiscal year 2030. NIH diabetes research administrators must plan around the renewed Special Diabetes Program funds. Federal taxpayers fund $160 million for each fiscal year from 2026 through 2030. Appropriations committees must account for the five-year program extension.

Key Provisions

  • Extends the Special Diabetes Program for Type I diabetes through fiscal year 2030.
  • Authorizes $160 million for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
