New Advances in Pain-Free Testing for Diabetics

Medicare and insurance will pay for diabetic supplies and the new painless glucose monitor for alternative site testing; will help diabetics avoid long term complications

Boca Raton, Fl (Moniker/PRWEB ) December 22, 2004 -- For many people living with diabetes, frequent testing of blood glucose levels can be the most valuable tool for maintaining control of symptoms and avoiding long term complications. New advances in pain free testing, including painless glucose monitors from many manufacturers, make pricked fingers and drawing blood a thing of the past. Alternative site monitors allow the patient to replace finger sticks with blood draws in less sensitive areas of the body such as the forearm and thigh.

Best of all, many people with diabetes qualify for free diabetic testing supplies, including a painless glucose monitor and test strips through Medicare or their private insurance program. We work with most of the major manufacturers of diabetic testing supplies and painless glucose monitors: One Touch Ultra, Accu-Chek Compact, and Therasense FreeStyle, we do all the paperwork and process Medicare or private insurance claims so that most of our customers get diabetic testing supplies with no out of pocket cost ." Said Robert Weinroth, President of www.AmericanDiabetes.com.

The painless testing supplies have been a breakthrough for diabetes monitoring. If patients arent suffering they are more willing to test their blood sugar levels as frequently as their doctor recommends" said Lorne Yaffe, Vice President Marketing for www.AmericanDiabetes.com, frequent testing allows most Type2 diabetics to maintain good control of their symptoms."
