Diabetes has become a major problem for the industrialised world. In 1985 around 30 million people world-wide had diabetes. 10 years later almost 135 million people had diabetes. The latest WHO estimate for the year 2000 is that 177 million people world-wide have diabetes with a change that this number will increase to at least 300 million by the year 2025. Diabetes-related death have been underestimated for a long time. No it is believed that ~4 million death a year can be correlated to diabetes. The costs for the health care system are enormous and it is estimated that 2-15% of the total annual health care budget are spent just on Diabetes-related disease. It is therefore mandatory that patient are well informed about their disease and more importantly that patients can perform a simple glucose test themselves in the comfort of their homes.
Many patients can control their glucose level themselves, but novel technologies evolve fast and especially for elderly people it is hard to keep up with this technology. Place a small sample of blood on the test stripe and add into your glucose meter. These glucose meters determine the level of glucose in the blood and display a number on the display. Every patient needs to understand what this number means and how to take appropriate action.
In addition, costs are massive and testing the glucose level in the blood can be quite costly. But many patients may qualify for free diabetic supply as part of the Medicare benefit scheme.
It is easy to apply. Just simply fill in the form and submit and you will get a free glucose meter and some information if you qualify to receive diabetic supply for free.
