Covered Diaper Brands

TennCare will cover four major brands during the initial launch of the Diaper Benefit. Within each of these brands, specific package sizes and types of diapers will be covered.  The brands will include:

  • Huggies (available at go-live)
  • Cuties (available at go-live)
  • Pampers (coming soon)
  • Luvs (coming soon)

Pharmacies will select which diapers they carry from the approved list.  Speak to your pharmacists to see what brands and types of diapers are available. 

Over the coming weeks, TennCare will be adding additional package sizes and types of diapers from these four brands as we work to grow the list of covered products.
