We will check it out.

I know it's the supplies they make their money off. We were told that most manufacturers have a program to provide coupons and discounts to people without insurance, but since we have Humana he's not eligible.

We can afford moderate co-pays and the doc only wants him to check 2x a day, so hopefully we can work something out... if we can get a meter!

appreciatively,
Bright
