I asked a friend with T1 (who has a pump, but she's 45 and on a group plan) to post the question on some of her diabetes forums that she is a member of. I'll keep you posted.

My friend who has Type 1 put this out there on a FB group and all of them CCS Med. A few also confirmed that they file Part B (and it looks that way from the website). There are multiple locations, nationwide.
