@ asker cover your snacks may mean that depending on the type of insulin you take it will "cover" the snacks, as in it will take care of the need to have a snack, meaning you don't need snacks, see here:
Patients with type 1 diabetes who need daily insulin injections are limited by the type of insulin itself. Using rapid-acting insulin (for instance Humalog) you will cover all insulin needs for meal. Since the rapid-acting insulin’s profile concurs with the increasing in blood glucose concentration all carbohydrates will be absorbed in the body. It works if you determine the dose of insulin accurately. In this case, ***no need any snacks***, ie additional meal is not necessary

More context A little more context will help provide a valid answer. :)
Thanks!

Yes I definitely think it does, although some more context would be nice.
