(08) 6110 0570admin@pdchealthhub.com.auA blood glucose meter measures the glucose level in a small drop of blood from a finger prick (most common), giving a reading in millimoles per litre (mmol/L).
Meters are used to check glucose at set times, to confirm a high or low, and as a backup when a CGM reading does not match how you feel. Many meters can also test blood ketones with a separate strip.
Test strips are subsidised through the NDSS. People living with type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin can get an initial six-month supply when their health professional advises them to monitor, using an NDSS approval form. The NDSS currently says no extension application is needed after the first six months.
Our clinicians can explain how this applies to you and help with the next step, whether that is a referral, a device, funding or a plan the rest of the team can see.
