Low Cost TRUEtest Strips and Meters Priced at Just $9.99
Make Testing Easier and More Cost-Effective for Diabetes Patients
American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) 36th
Annual Meeting, Booth #126 - Home
Diagnostics, Inc. (NASDAQ:HDIX), a leading manufacturer and marketer
of diabetes testing supplies, is making diabetes testing more affordable
with its low cost TRUE
family of products. As people continue to struggle to make ends
meet, diabetes patients also face the recurring cost of testing
supplies, including test
strips and meters.
As store branded glucose monitoring systems, the TRUE family of products
from Home Diagnostics costs significantly less than the national brands.
According to a CNN
poll, one in three respondents said they had cut back on necessities
such as food or medicine because of the economy. To provide affordable
diabetes care products without sacrificing quality, retailers, including
CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens, partner with Home Diagnostics for their
store branded diabetes testing supplies. Blood glucose monitoring
products manufactured by Home Diagnostics can typically save people with
diabetes up to $400 per year on diabetes supplies* in comparison to
competitive products and are covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most
third-party insurance providers.
Home Diagnostics’ diabetes testing supplies, including the world’s
smallest blood
glucose meter, TRUE2go™,
offers state-of-the-art technology at an affordable price. About the
size of a quarter and small enough to fit in a pocket or purse, TRUE2go
attaches to the top of a vial of test strips and offers patients the
convenience of on-the-go testing to help them better manage their
diabetes. TRUE2go also features no-coding technology and a small sample
size that make it more convenient for diabetics to test their blood
glucose levels more often, allowing for greater control of their glucose
levels.
The meter is compatible with Home Diagnostics’ new TRUEtest™ test strips
featuring the company’s patent-pending, state-of-the-art GoldSensor™
laser accuracy and TRUEfill™ beveled tip. These advanced features ensure
highly accurate test results and first test success by allowing for
greater sampling precision and consistency.
“The availability and affordability of high quality blood glucose
monitoring supplies is crucial for diabetes patients.
