What is up with Alere now changing their policy that we have to do twice a month reporting. For me this means I will be using 2 boxes of 12 strips per year rather than one box at their price of $165. My doctor has me call into Alere, who then sends the results to the doctor, Alere then turns around and charges Medicare $245 each quarter for this service. It seems they have cornered the market on INratio strips (strips used to cost me $90 through a medical supply)plus charging a high price for their service, no wonder our health insurance is through the roof with companies like this out there. Before going on Medicare, I did once a month testing for nine years, and if there was a problem only then did I need to see the doctor.
