About Lancets & Lancing Devices and Medicare coverage
Lancets are sterile, single-use needles used to pierce the skin and obtain the blood drop needed for glucose testing. Medicare Part B covers lancets under HCPCS A4259 at the same frequency as test strips — up to 100 per month for insulin-treated beneficiaries. Gauge (thickness) matters: a 33-gauge lancet causes significantly less pain than a 28-gauge. Most Phoenix-area suppliers carry 28- and 30-gauge by default; we stock 33-gauge options specifically because patient comfort affects testing compliance.
"Chandler Regional referred me. The whole process — prescription, billing, delivery — took two days. My previous supplier took three weeks for the same thing."
