Does OKRA take any type of insurance for their test kits?
You will never have to pay for OKRA testing insurance, and here’s why.
Insurance Coverage Increases the Cost of Diabetes
The cost of glucose meters varies tremendously and, unfortunately, you don’t always get what you pay for. Just because a given meter is provided by a diabetes health insurance provider or a doctor doesn’t mean that it is any more accurate than other brands on the market.
All FDA-approved devices in the United States are required to be within the same accuracy range in order to qualify for approval. That means that insurer-provided glucometers are not necessarily better than independent brands that may be more affordable.
The Hidden Costs of Diabetes and Insurance Coverage
Glucose meters are not particularly hard to make, yet larger companies tend to give the impression that they are. As standard industry practice, many manufacturers give diabetes and insurance coverage companies financial incentives to feature their products in diabetes management programs.
These products are not necessarily superior — their manufacturers simply have a bigger budget for paying commissions. When it comes down to it, you may be spending your hard-earned money on in-house bonuses and company flights without any real advantage to your health.
Diabetes and Insurance Coverage Limits
Medicare and Medicaid offer a certain level of diabetes health insurance to older Americans as well as younger people with long-term conditions. However, these and many other providers have limits on the annual amount you can spend. After exhausting your provider’s coverage, you’re back to having to pay out of pocket — and this can happen more quickly than you may think when it comes to a subscription product like OKRA Pro Starter Kit Bundle.
While it may seem counterintuitive, purchasing test kits directly rather than going through Medicare gives you greater control over your spending. In the end, it may actually save you money compared to the premiums you usually pay!
Pricing Structure
Over time, diabetes and insurance coverage costs go up, and this has a flow-on effect on the cost of deductibles. As your ally in health, OKRA Care helps you avoid the hidden costs and fluctuations of diabetes health insurance with a straight-up price you can always rely on.
