Maybe this was an discreet WH tactic to get folks to look at alternative ways to control diabetes? I only say this because my wife was diagnosed with diabetes last year and the Dr. immediately gave her a shopping bag full of pills and equipment to "treat" her high A1C of 11.3.
As an RN, she was shocked and angry that they never talked to her about diet and better / healthy nutrition choices. She refused to take any of the meds and decided to change the diet of our entire family that day.
Within a few months she had her A1C down 6.7 and now it's at 6.2 with only diet and occasional exercise.
Jacking up the prices would certainly provoke folks to look into cheaper / natural methods and maybe even question why there are so many drugs to treat symptoms rather than cure / correct the problem.

She had type two.
This doesn't work for type one as well (it does impact it).
