[Diabetes-talk] Talking Glucose meter question

[d m gina]

Mike,
We are forced here in Billins Montana Yellowstone county to switch 
insurance companies.
We are not happy but we are getting told that someone in Yellowstone 
county didn't do their job rite and yellowstone isn't going to do 
Humana any more.
They will do the drug plan threw wall mart, but your medical plan you 
have to find for yourself.
we did, so this is why I am asking so many questions.
We will get our cards in december for January.
I am in question of one of my medicines, and am doing lots of 
questioning with the doctor office as well as the insurance plan I will 
call tomorrow.
I can ask about this, but wonder if I should wait until we know that 
the machine is out, and for the most part the blind like it?
Or is there a different way to ask the question on behalf of getting a 
new machine?
thanks,

>> Hello, Mike,
>> Will the Solus V2 be calibrated to plasma or whole blood? Most meters
