Some Useful Diabetic Information

Posted by Lew on March 24, 2009

Hi and thanks so much for returning to my blog. RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

As I’m sure some of you have noticed by now, I own a Kindle and I also have a blog that focuses on the Amazon Kindle E-Reader titled Kindle Wired.com.

One of the things that I do on Kindle Wired is review some of the blog content that is available on the Kindle, and one of the new blogs that I am reading is titled Daily Diabetic, and I found a few useful items that I wanted to share here…

and here is an important way to save money thanks to Bayer….

Afford Your Diabetes Device With Bayer Simple Saver™ Program

Having diabetes isn’t cheap. Diabetes devices and testing is expensive. What if you can’t afford it?

Now, Bayer Diabetes Care has introduced Bayer Simple Saver™ Program – offering qualified people with diabetes several ways to save on their out-of-pocket costs for test strips, making testing more affordable and life with diabetes simpler.

The program is completely free for consumers and can be used in most states. The Bayer Simple Saver Program can be accessed by consumers via a website which will be promoted through Bayer advertising, physician offices, on-line, through Bayer customer service and in pharmacies across the country.

Most consumers will be able to save instantly at the pharmacy counter in nearly all locations nationwide. When a consumer qualifies, Bayer will pay up to $360 per year depending upon their state of residence or health plan.

While I’m not certain which blog I will be choosing for my Kindle Kontent blog pick next week, the few items I found on Daily Diabetic.com today,were certainly informative and of course useful.
