[QUOTE="Deleted member 308541, post: 1437775"] As a T2 and a member ot the NDSS, I get subsidised testing strips at $1.30 per 100. I pay what ever the going price for Accu-Chek lancets which are < $10.00 a box of four. Testing meters are free if you look around. I have a federal government concession card that give me prescription medication at $6.30 per item. After sixty scripts I hit the safety net, and then get all of my medication including the strips free for the rest of the year. I pay a fair amount of money to a private health insurance fund each year. I have a Medicare health care plan that gives me five free visits to a podiatrist. Free eye tests from a optometrist of my choice, new glasses cost extra, unless you get the free **** from the Qld Health service. My diabetic educator bulk bills Medicare for my visits, so that costs me nothing. Edit: Clarity. [/QUOTE]
