[Diabetes-Talk] Pro Voice V9 Glucometer

Tue Sep 4 20:53:31 UTC 2018

Eileen,

Good to know. I was given inaccurate info. This is really good to know.

Totally understand about getting from a third-party seller. And yes, if insurance covers them, that's the way to go.

Bridget,

I live alone and when I bought the Clever Choice Voicemeter last fall I did the entire set up on my own with no sighted assistance. It speaks all of its memory values as well without limitations. 

I too am an excellent Amazon customer and use them all the time for a variety of products, but when it comes to the test strips, they are not sold by Amazon directly they are coming from a second or third party seller. So I do not want to risk getting a batch or several batches of strips that are out of date. Besides, I have insurance that is supposed to cover the cost of my diabetic testing supplies. I want insurance to cover that cost not pay out of pocket for them.

My understanding was the Clever is not fully accessible to set up initially.

I order a lot on Amazon, including food, and things are always "fresh." Especially if you have Prime and things come in 2 days. Shipping from Amazon is no different then shipping from anywhere else.

I have the Clever Choice talking meter as well and would like very much to switch to it rather than using the Prodigy. However, I do not want to purchase strips through Amazon since I question the freshness of the strips. Does any one know of both the name and address of a Medicare approved provider that has strips for the Clever Choice Voice? This meter does have full accessibility – the Prodigy is not the only one with full accessibility. The issue is getting strips that work with the Clever Choice Voice.

Thanks for any recommendations on providers.

Hello,
Actually you can do this also with the Cleverchoice voice hd meter. It is also fully accessible. I have one. I just prefer the Prodigy Voice because the strips are a bit cheaper.
