Prodigy has a new diabetes starter kit that provides pharmacies a new way to offer affordable blood glucose testing to people with diabetes. The Prodigy 100-count Test Strips with Free AutoCode Talking Meter Kit is designed to minimize inventory costs to the pharmacy while, at the same time, provide a state of the art talking blood glucose meter, test strips and lancing device at a low cost to the patient, the company said.
This complete kit will allow many patients to start testing for under $15-to-$19 if they do not have insurance. It also is billable as a 100-count test strip for Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurance. This helps people control their diabetes disease state and supports efforts to make diabetes care more affordable.
