Nov. 23, 2008 - PRLog -- Government-Diabetes.Org the nation's leading publisher on managing diabetes, has implemented a new program to provide Abbott FreeStyle blood-glucose meters to all diabetic on medicare and private insurance.
This new program is being offered to more than 21,000,000 diabetics on medicare or private insurance, as well as anyone newly diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes, which affects approximately 8 percent of the nation's population, remains one of the leading causes of death in the US.


"The glucose meter has become essential in helping diabetics better manage their diabetes," said Mike Greene director for Government-Diabetes.Org. "The meter allows diabetics to gauge more effectively the doses of insulin that they need at any given time, which helps to stabilize their condition."

"Tighter control of blood sugar, measured through HbA1c (glycoslated hemoglobin) has been shown to help slow the progression of the disease, resulting in lower incidences of co-morbidities, such as retinal problems,blindness and cardiovascular disease," added Greene

"The latest study by the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DDCT) Research Group indicated that good blood-glucose control reduced complications of the eyes, kidneys and nervous system by 60 percent."  This is a very strong case of preventive medicine at work voiding off more serious complications "urged Greene."
