Uninsured Diabetics to Get Relief with Direct2Home Program
Anaheim, CA, October 09, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The lack of healthcare coverage has been an especially sore point for diabetics. With the cost of monthly testing reaching about $65 a month or more diabetics are looking for alternatives. Typically to cut costs, diabetics have resorted to either using cheap quality meters or even worse, reducing the amount of their testing. Because of the complications of diabetes, it is very important to test as directed by a physician.

To help the uninsured diabetic, Blue Sparrow is introducing the Direct2Home program. This program is designed for diabetics who must pay out of pocket for their diabetic supplies. The program is about $18 a month and includes a full month’s worth of testing supplies. The first package includes a state of the art KeyNote Meter, a box of 50 strips and 100 lancets and then a box of strips arrives every month.

With nearly 1 Million users worldwide, the KeyNote Meter is a very popular meter because of its accuracy and small blood sample size.

“It’s widely known that diabetic supplies have been a big cash cow for big pharmaceutical companies and Medicare billing companies, it’s about time somebody shook up the market,“ states Derek Nguyen, Director of Marketing for Blue Sparrow, “there is a wide discrepancy for what big pharmaceutical companies charge for Medicare recipients, another for manage cared patients and the full price for retail consumers. I can’t think of any industry that has such wide pricing tiers based on the type of consumer. The Keynote meter really levels the playing field because now you get a highly accurate meter at a very affordable price. “

The advantage with the Direct2Home program is that the testing supplies are automatically sent to your home for a small monthly fee. To be eligible you must have a valid credit or debit card for the auto-payment and stay enrolled in the program for 1 year. Currently, Blue Sparrow offers an introductory promotion. The Direct2Home program is available in 1 unit increments. It starts at $14.99 per month for the first 3 months and then $17.99 after that. If you test more often and need more than one box, then you would order as many “units” as you need. For example, if you need 3 boxes a month, then you would enroll in 3 units. To save shipping costs, you get a 4 month supply 3 times a year but, are billed monthly. If you decide to cancel early, you are simply charged a $30 early termination fee and must return the meter.

“Diabetic testing is literally such a pain,“ says Bapi Mohanty, President of Blue Sparrow, “we hope to reduce the pain physically by introducing a meter with one of the smallest required blood samples and to reduce the pain financially by offering the strips at a reduced price.”

Armed with a highly accurate meter, low cost strips and lancets diabetics nationwide now have an alternative to high retail costs for diabetic testing. Let the revolution begin!
