Do You Need Help Paying For Your Diabetic Supplies?

21 Oct

WHERE CAN I FIND LOW COST DIABETIC SUPPLIES?
Abbott Diabetes Care Patient Assistance Program
This program assists financially disadvantaged individuals who meet certain income criteria. The Abbott Diabetes Care application can be found at www.rxassist.org/providers/documents/Abb… or call 866-224-8887.
Bayer
Bayer offers a one time startup/upgrade (from other Bayer meters) kit–CONTOUR® Blood Glucose Monitoring System that includes a small number of strips. Advocates consider the price of the strips to be expensive for individuals without health insurance.
IPump.org, Inc. (www.ipump.org) offers limited reimbursement for diabetes medications, supplies, and insulin to persons who qualify under their “ERMA” (Emergency Request for Medical Assistance) program.

    Always check with your provider, if not then see if there’s a community clinic, and then see what the state can cover.
    Again, Mendoza’s site covers this topic.

    Any help is useful!
    Luckily for me in the UK its free anyway as a diabetic on medication gets prescription payment exemption :)
