About Diabetic Test Strips and Medicare coverage
Diabetic test strips are single-use reagent strips that react with blood glucose to produce an electrical signal the meter reads. Under Medicare Part B, insulin-treated beneficiaries qualify for up to 100 strips per month. Strips must be compatible with the beneficiary's covered meter — mixing brands from different meter families is the most common cause of prior-authorization delays. All strips we ship are factory-sealed and within six months of their expiration date.
"I called at 9 AM and my CGM supplies were at my door by the next morning. The rep explained my Part B coverage clearly — something my pharmacy never did."
