Glucose testing is a vital part of an effective blood sugar management program for people afflicted with diabetes. Having access to cost effective test strips is an absolute must but even though blood sugar testing devices have been around for over 20 years, the cost of testing strips has not declined very much, if at all.
Why is this so?
Presently, [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/doudounemoncler.php]moncler[/url] four medical technology companies dominate about 90 percent of the glucose strips market, thereby eliminating practically all of their competitors which allows them to keep prices high. These firms are in the game to make money and since the markup on test strips is so high (cost of manufacture is typically around 5 cents each, versus 85 cents to one dollar at retail) it represents a windfall profit opportunity.
At the same time, the growing number of diabetics, identified by increased medical screening, is set to generate greater demand for glucose strips in North America which means more people paying [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister sale[/url] inflated prices. This is fine if a patient has medical insurance [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Barbour-Paris.php]barbour pas cher soldes[/url] but if that's not the case it can financially over-burden them and make testing a lot harder to justify. They become torn between the dire need to test and the fiscal need to [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/jimmy-choo.php]jimmy choo chaussures[/url] save money. This [url=http://www.moncleroutletosterblade.com]moncler outlet[/url] is a disastrous situation since a diabetic needs to feel that they can test anytime they want or need to without too much concern.
How to lower the cost.
Clearly, a way to lower the cost of test strips is desirable. Some companies have begun to show up in the market that have lowered the cost by around 30 percent to around 60 cents a strip but that still makes testing somewhat expensive.
One method that has proven to lower the cost of my own blood sugar testing supplies is to buy them online on EBay. For [url=http://www.jordanpascherofficiele.com]air jordan[/url] one reason or another, people are ending up with a surplus of glucose test strips and they're auctioning them off on the world's largest garage [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/abercrombiepascher/‎]abercrombie pas cher[/url] sale.
Typically, test strips go for at least 50 percent less than retail which can bring your cost down as low as 25 - 30 cents depending on the brand and model of blood sugar monitor you use.
EBay has proven effective for me and many others but since it's an online auction, I urge you to be cautious and do your research on products and buyers before [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] committing to anything. EBay can be a safe place [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/jimmy-choo.php]jimmy choo paris[/url] to [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] buy but there are some things you need to be aware of before you buy.
I've purchased hundreds of test strips from EBay and have had good experiences so far, so it is possible to do this and not get burned.
But unwary buyers could get more than they bargained for. They could be opening themselves up to eye damage or unnecessary surgery [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] if they don't know how to buy glucose strips safely. There is also the possibility of ending up with counterfeit strips, so it pays to be informed.
So go ahead [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] and buy. But before you do, take a few minutes and get solid information before you commit and make a mistake you might regret.
