[Diabetes-talk] Prodigy Pocket

[Kelly Massaro]

The Prodigy Pocket is a new release and it's our new "non talking meter"


It uses the same strips as the Auto Code meter.  The Prodigy Voice uses
its own indicated strip.  

It is available at all Drugstores, so I'm clear as to why they're
turning you away.  Because they order through Amerisource Bergen,
Cardinal or McKesson they can get our products.  If the pharmacist needs
help ordering they may call our tech support line at 800-243-2636.  We
also have the ability to drop ship this item to any of the retailers
mentioned. 

The Pocket is covered under Medi-Care and depending on your private
insurance.  However......the retail cost/cash pay for the Pocket is very
reasonable so may be an option for a secondary meter as a cash pay if it
isn't covered.

I'm not sure if insurance will cover the two different strips.  My hope
is eventually that all our meters will use one strip so you may
interchange meters if needed without affecting your insurance.  

I will get additional information for you if this isn't helpful.  Please
let me know.

The Pocket comes in blue, pink, green, black and green camouflage.

Subject: [Diabetes-talk] Prodigy Pocket

Is  the Prodigy Pocket machine been out a while or is this a new
release?
 
I called several of the stores on DDI's website to check on the  
availability and price on this machine and they said it was not listed
so they  could 
not order it.[Walgreens, Target, and Walmart].  I understand it is  the
size 
of a businesscard and it takes Prodigy Auto Code Strips
 
 
Can anyone tell me if the insurance companies will pay for 2 different  
types of strips?  As I have a Prodigy Voice, but would love to have
something 
this size to take along with me when going out for dinner and friends
and 
meetings.  It seems it would be perfect for that.  
 
I will tell you I am nervous when I take my Prodigy Voice with me as I
have 
 left it behind and then have to listen to my dear husband complain
about 
going  back to get it.  I don't have to worry about forgetting my
insulin pen 
 because I give it to him to put in his pocket and I always have an
extra 
pen at  home.
 
I hear the Prodigy  Pocket comes in colors!  I am definitely a  purple 
kinda girl, too bad they don't come in purple!  I was one of the  first
to get a 
purple KNFB Reader phone.
