[Diabetes-talk] FW: Talking Roche glucose meters

[cheryl echevarria]

No that is the current information,  I would contact your insurance company and inform this of it, as well, they might be looking at an old formulary of information.
Medicaid is never up to date, I haven't been on a Roche Machine since 2005, they also have been saying that for years, the only 2 accessible meters are Prodigy voice and Solo Meter.
Advanced Diabetic Solutions might be able to help.
Greg Santulli, the President of the company was recently on thruoureyes.org with Joe Ruffalo I think it was in January about this.
There phone number is 1-877-377-6382, they also do the fitting for diabetic shoes and other services.
Call and ask to speak to the rep that is working with the NFB members when you call.
