medicare coverage for strips?
Sometime ago I read, but cannot locate, information on exact wording to get
okayed for more than 4 strips per day testing for Medicare insured persons. Can
anyone recall what the wording needs to be?
I am having lots of lows and don’t recognize them, so have to test often.
Prior insurance covered 12 strips a day with no problems, medicare allows me
only
4.
I am on Byetta 10 mcg, not having highs for the most part now, a.m. fasting
numbers between 70-100, not on Lantus currently. Latest A1c 5.4.
My endo and I have discussed dropping to 5 mcg Byetta, but I am reluctant to
do that just yet.
Still dealing with lots of other problems that individually are managable,
but collectively depressing, so being treated for that too.
