The GetInsulin program, launched by singer‑advocate Nick Jonas, produced 8,400 customized plans in 2025 that kept most users’ insulin bills at $35 a month or less.
The platform works by asking a handful of questions about location, insurance status, income, and prescription details. It then cross‑checks that data against a database of existing assistance programs, from manufacturer coupons to state‑run subsidies, and spits out a step‑by‑step action plan.
Jonas, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 13, turned personal struggle into public action when he co‑founded Beyond Type 1. He explained that the lack of affordable insulin is a human rights issue, not just a medical one, and that any adult should be able to manage their condition without financial panic.
Beyond Type 1’s 2025 Impact Report also revealed a shift from one‑off help to ongoing support: the organization now sends email reminders and updates users whenever insurance rules or program eligibility change. That steady guidance keeps people from falling back into unaffordable spirals as their circumstances evolve.
If you or someone you love needs insulin, the GetInsulin tool is free, available in English, and covers a wide range of insurance setups—including uninsured, under‑insured, and those with coverage but high out‑of‑pocket costs.
