Change in Your Diabetes Testing Supply Coverage

As of October 15, 2009, Neighborhood Health Plan will only cover the Abbott Diabetes Care products FreeStyle® and Precision Xtra®.

Providing Quality Care & Exceptional Value in Diabetes Testing

At Neighborhood Health Plan, our mission is to ensure that every member has access to quality, affordable health care. As you have probably seen in the news recently, doctors, hospitals, patients, and health insurance companies struggle to deal with the rising cost of health care. At NHP, we are working to find ways we can continue to provide high quality health products to our members but at a lower cost and comparable value.

Our team of highly-qualified, experienced physicians and nurses carefully reviewed the top glucometers on the market today, and unanimously selected Abbott glucometer products because they:

• Do not require any coding
• Require the smallest blood samples
• Are easy to use
• Use test strips that are conveniently available at your local pharmacy where you pick up your medications
