Important Update: The Best Option for Low-Cost Insulin is Lispro (generic Humalog)

Until recently, Utahns could get discounted fast-acting insulin through the Utah Insulin Savings Program. This changed with the availability of Insulin Lispro (generic Humalog) which can be purchased at a lower cost than through the Savings Program in place of Novolog®. If you’re in need of low-cost insulin, please contact your healthcare provider about changing your prescription to Lispro.

Note: You can still get long-lasting insulin via the Utah Insulin Savings Program:

• Lantus®
• Toujeo®
• Toujeo Max®
• Novolin®

In the 2020 Legislative Session, lawmakers passed House Bill 207 (Insulin Access Amendments). This legislation directed the creation of a program allowing Utahns' to purchase insulin at discounted rates. This program is primarily designed to help individuals who do not have health insurance or are covered with large deductibles requiring them to cover a significant portion of their insulin costs.

To be eligible to participate, you must:

• be a resident of the State of Utah;
• be an individual who has been diagnosed with diabetes;
• use insulin to treat diabetes; and
• not be an employee or dependent of an employee of the State of Utah with insulin related benefits covered through PEHP Health & Benefits.
