Question: I was wondering where I can donate old Glucometers!?
I've been diabetic for over 21 years and have found several old glucometers in a move recently!. They still work and the supplies for them are still sold at almost every pharmacy!. I was wondering where I can donate these older glucometers!? What organizations can I mail them to or drop them off at!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
acutally I work in health care and i have several elderly patients that need them as medicare will not pay for them unless the one they have is so many months old which sucks when they break and such and they are on a fixed income and can not purchase more but if your willing to mail them to me I know several people that can use them there is no risk as the strips come in contact with blood not the meter you can email me on my profile threw the link and I will email you back with my address thanks for thinking of donating them many people think there is not a need but when you have someone on a fixed income and can not spend the extra money to purchase one when they break it is a god sent Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't believe there is a need for old glucometers, they are pretty easy to get, most insurances supply them and quite frequently, that's why you have so many, just throw them out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Since they're almost always free even without insurance and can come into contact with your blood (who hasn't stuck a bloody finger on their meter!?) there is absolutely no reason/need to donate them!.

If you do have unexpired strips, try ipump!.orgWww@Answer-Health@Com
