Prodigy Voice Meter Available from Western Diabetic

Western Diabetic Supplies now proudly offers the Prodigy Voice meter, the first fully-accessible glucose meter designed in conjunction with the National Federation of the Blind (NFB). This meter is available for Easy Home Delivery. For information on obtaining a Prodigy Voice meter or strips, call (877) 937-8342. In my opinion, this meter is a substantial improvement over the previous Prodigy Autocode, even with respect to the look, feel, and substance of the meter.

We have just made our first several shipments to blind diabetic patients, so stay tuned for feedback.

The PRODIGY^® Voice is a totally audible blood glucose monitoring system specially designed for the blind. Our NEW features were developed with the help of National Blind Associations and Certified Diabetes Educators.

No Coding. You will never need to code the meter. Simply insert the test strip and the meter turns on automatically. You get safe accurate test results everytime.

Totally Audible Features. The Prodigy^® Voice will “talk” the user through all set-ups, step-by-step, including audible test results, audible meter status, audible averages, and memory records with date and time.

REPEAT Button. Allows the user to check and hear the last message or test result.

Set Button. Allows the user to audibly set up all the functions of the meter step-by-step.

Easy to Identify Buttons with Finger Touch. The buttons on the Prodigy^® Voice have raised imprints to allow the blind user to easily identify the buttons with gentile touch.

Eject Button. Safely ejects the used test strip with a push upward.

Fast Results. Accurate, fast, audible test results in just 6 seconds.

Greater Comfort. Prodigy^® Voice offers you the option to test with blood from your palms, forearms, upper-arms, thighs and calves, which have fewer nerve endings than your fingertips.

Audible Memory and Data Management. Prodigy^® Voice can store up to 450 audible test results with date and time, and gives 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 day audible averages. Prodigy’s FREE software allows simple downloading of test results to your computer helping you and your Diabetes healthcare professional to track changes in your blood glucose level over time.

Smaller Blood Sample Required. Prodigy^® Voice requires only 0.6 microliter drop of blood – smaller then most meters available today. This allows you to use extra fine gauge lancets and significantly reduce your pain and discomfor.

This meter and test strips have very reasonable retail cash prices and are covered by insurance the same as other diabetes testing supplies. The retail price for the meter is about $90 and the strips are about $40.

This meter is a vast improvement over the Accu-Chek VoiceMate, which has been discontinued.
