[Vincent Chaney]

Chanelle,



I am bringing this to the attention of the BioSense and ADS companies in the 
hope I will connect with the right person(s) with your situation. Chanelle, 
you and I can keep the Diabetes-Talk list abreast of the status of your 
acquiring the Solo and the Solo V2 Test Strips.

Do you mean that I should find a provider who accepts Medicaid that would be
willing to carry the Solo strips? I use a company called Byram Healthcare to
get strips for the Prodigy Voice. I know that Advanced Diabetic Solutions
takes Medicaid for other states, so the company has probably not gone
through the process to enroll as a provider with Minnesota medicaid.

>  Dear diabetes list,
>  I contacted Advanced Diabetic Solutions about getting a Solo v2 meter and
> found out that they do not take my insurance, Medicaid of Minnesota. I was
> wondering if there are any other companies that will be eventually selling
> the Solo meter or at least the strips or if there is a way to get Advanced

> testing alarms, the ability for someone to indicate whether a blood sugar
> test is done before or after a meal, and accessible software. If I cannot
> get the solo meter, I will still use my Prodigy Voice. With the Prodigy
> Voice, I was wondering if any of you have successfully used the computer
> software. I know that Prodigy is coming out or has already produced an
> update that is more accessible. What type of cable do you need? I asked
> for one, but Prodigy sent me a mini usb to usb cable, which did not fit
> anywhere on the meter.
>  Any ideas or answers would be greatly appreciated.
>  Thank you.
