Ascensia Test Strips Reduce Inaccuracies in Diabetic Monitoring

Ascensia Test Strips Reduce Inaccuracies in Diabetic Monitoring - American Diabetes Services

In a recent diabetic monitoring study that compared OneTouch Ultra, FreeStyle glucose meter, and Ascensia CONTOUR, Ascensia CONTOUR glucose meter was found to offer superior accuracy in diabetic monitoring. Ascensia CONTOUR, DEX and BREEZE use no coding Ascensia test strips, which reduces the chances of an improper reading. OneTouch Ultra and FreeStyle glucose meters have to be manually coded every time new test strips are used. If a diabetic patient inputs the wrong code, the diabetic monitoring inaccuracies can be as high as 43%.

American Diabetes Services encourages diabetics to apply for a free Ascensia CONTOUR glucose meter and Ascensia test strips. American Diabetes Services is an approved Medicare provider and we accept most major insurance.
