              UNDER THE MEDICAID PROGRAM.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The prevalence and cost of diabetes is a significant 
        concern for State Medicaid programs. By 2021, the Medicaid 
        program is expected to cover 13,000,000 people with diabetes 
        and about 9,000,000 people who may have pre-diabetes. By 2021, 
        States will spend an estimated $83,000,000,000 on individuals 
        with diabetes or pre-diabetes.
            (2) The National Diabetes Prevention Program, as 
        established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 
        has been proven to reduce the onset of diabetes in at-risk 
        adults by 58 percent, using a cost-effective, community-based 
        intervention.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that the 
National Diabetes Prevention Program presents an opportunity for States 
to reduce the incidence of diabetes among individuals enrolled in their 
Medicaid programs.
