What Do You Need to Ask Diabetes Supply Company?
By John Mancini
For many diabetic patients, getting the supplies they need can be a frustrating experience. There are many options that exist and many places that will even help you fill out the paperwork that is needed for your insurance company. However, sifting through all of the information and selecting the right option for you can be time consuming and nerve wracking. These suggestions will help you decide where to purchase your supplies.
While you are conducting your search, be sure go check that the companies you are considering have an actual address that isn't a P.O. Box. What you are looking for is that any supply company you are thinking of purchasing from is a real company, not someone who is, for instance, buying and reselling supplies.
While you are checking for a knowledgeable staff, ask if they have a pharmacist on staff. If they don't, find out if they have a certified educator on staff that can answer your questions. This will help to ensure that you are dealing with a reputable firm and not a fly by night company.
First, do not deal with any supply company that is not based in the United States or in Canada. The reason for this is simple, if the supply company is not in North America, shipping tends to be less dependable and your supplies could be held in customs. Avoid supply sources that are located in South America,
Asia or Mexico for these reasons.
You also want to know who fills out the insurance or Medicare paperwork. Most larger, well-run supply companies will offer this service for you as an added benefit. They will know what the insurance companies require to process a claim. If they offer this to you, use the service to your advantage. It is also a good idea to contact your insurance company to verify that they work with a particular supply source.
When you are beginning your search for a diabetic supply source, it is important to know what to look for. While you can purchase the needed supplies from your doctor, online or through a mail order company, some important questions need to be answered before you decide. You will need to know where they are located, what the hours of operation are, how qualified the staff is to answer questions and how they will ship the supplies to you.
Shipping is very important when purchasing supplies. Find out how they ship the products, this information could ensure that you get supplies that are good and that have not gone bad in transit. Insulin, for example needs to be kept cold to stay useable, ask how they ensure this. Ask about shipping charges also, some companies will offer free shipping as an incentive to buy from them. However, if they don't, the shipping can get expensive.
