After some Googling I got insurance through an agency that specializes in finding companies for this. I even got critical illness cover for long term care but this does have a diabetic exclusion on it that lists almost everything you can think of. I had a pile of forms to fill in that was about 6 inches thick too! At least I'm covered for cancer or RTA. I do live in the UK though so not much help to you and here the state will also pick up the tab for most long term care.
