If you’re selling your extra diabetic test strips for the first time, a simple online search will return dozens of results. It can be extremely difficult to choose the company that offers the best prices without some comparison shopping. The best solution is to contact the companies and request a free online quote.

Your research doesn’t end there. Explore how much your test strips cost new for the amount you have and compare it to how much the test strip company is paying for the same strips. This is a process that you’ll need to do periodically. Prices change as the demand for certain types of test strips increase or decrease.

Even if you have insurance and paid a minimal amount in co-pays for your strips, you’ll still want to get the best value for what you have. Companies that sell test strips also have specific requirements for the strips they accept. You’ll need to ensure your test strips meet those requirements.

The test strips must be new, unopened, and have an expiration date of at least 6 months. They must be in the original, undamaged package. Test strips obtained through your insurance company can be sold. Test strips paid for through Medicare, Medicaid and other government-operated healthcare programs cannot be sold.

One thing you won’t have to factor in is shipping costs. Companies that buy test strips will pay for the postage to ship the strips to them for inspection, pay for them to be returned if they don’t meet specifications, and provide tracking.

If accepted, the company will pay you in one of several ways, depending on your preferences. The companies are national enterprises and purchase from throughout the U.S. They even provide shipping kits for faster service.

Everyone wants to receive the most money for what they have to sell. Knowing the cost of your brand of test strips, and the quantity, is the first step. Then ask for a free online quote.

In an effort to preserve their diabetic test strips and extend their shelf life, many people are treating them like they would food by storing them in the refrigerator or freezer. They’re ruining their test strips and destroying the accuracy without even knowing it. Storing them in such a way affects the accuracy of readings and can lead to deadly consequences.

A vial of test strips should remain unopened until they’re ready to be used and in their original container. They must be stored in a cool, dry place, but never in the refrigerator or freezer, and out of direct sunlight. The ideal temperature conditions are between 68°F to 86°F, with the optimal temperature being 77°F. They should also be stored at humidity levels below 70 percent.

The vials in which test strips are packaged are designed to protect them from moisture, light and temperature variances that are detrimental to them. They should never be taken out of the vial for travel or to reduce bulkiness of the supplies diabetics need to carry with them. Removing them from their protective vial, even for 30 to 45 minutes, can render them inaccurate and result in a false glucose reading.

Each box of test strips has an expiration date printed on the label. It’s not recommended to try to stock up on test strips as an individual may not be able to use them up before they expire. Test strips that are past the expiration date or that have been stored incorrectly won’t provide an accurate reading. That can lead to an individual injecting too much or too little insulin.

There’s currently no better way to store test strips or any way to extend their shelf life. The best solution is not to purchase more than you’ll use within the expiration date printed on the label and to store them according to traditional methods as previously noted.

People with diabetes have dozens of things to consider each day and one of those is disposing of their used glucose test strips, lancets and syringes. Many test strip packages have instructions on the inside detailing how to dispose of them, but the information is buried in a mountain of small print.

The first thing to know is that any object that contains blood is considered biomedical waste and must be disposed of in an appropriate manner. There are specially made sharps containers specifically designed for disposing of used test strips, lancets and syringes. The containers are red, come in different sizes, and are available in pharmacies. They also contain visible warnings on the outside of the container about what they hold.

When a sharps container is full, tape the top securely and place it in the middle of the trash bin for pick up. Many Florida counties and health departments have initiated drop off programs where people can take their full containers for disposal. In some instances, individuals can receive another container at no cost or at minimal cost. Drop off programs are also available at some pharmacies, clinics, hospitals and medical waste facilities.

If residents don’t have such a program in their area, the Florida Health Department offers another solution, but advises that individuals should check with their trash pickup company to ensure that the following method is allowed.

People without a sharps container can use a hard plastic or metal container with a screw on top. The most commonly used containers are liquid detergent bottles, though a paint can is also acceptable. When the container is full, secure the top with heavy duty tape. Use a marker and clearly mark the container as “Medical Waste.” It can then be placed in the center of the trash bin for pick up.

There’s a very lucrative third-party market in the U.S. for diabetic test strips and the sellers are providing a major service for people with diabetes. Test strips are a critical tool for monitoring, and managing the disease and diabetics can’t do without them. There’s an enormous market for test strips that earns cash for those that have them and helps save lives of those that need them.

Millions of uninsured and underinsured diabetics can’t afford the test strips they need. Others that do have insurance may encounter expensive co-pays they can’t meet. Further complicating the monthly test strip ordeal for diabetics is locating affordable test strips for their particular meter. Test strips are not interchangeable among different meter brands.

Many individuals hesitate to capitalize on an excess of test strips under the false impression that they’ll get in trouble for selling them. Nothing could be further from the truth. It’s completely legal to sell diabetic test strips since they don’t require a prescription and anyone can buy them over-the-counter.

However, there are a few restrictions. Test strips that are paid for by government-based insurance such as Medicaid or Medicare can’t be sold. To be accepted by a reseller, the test strips must have a sufficiently long expiration date, the boxes must be in unopened, and in excellent condition for the safety of those that will use them.

The sale of diabetic supplies is an industry that nets more than $12 billion dollars for pharmaceutical companies each year. Many big pharma companies offer programs purported to help those in need. However, qualifying for the programs can require extensive paperwork, much of which must be completed by a physician. Income limits apply also apply and are set at extremely low levels.

Selling diabetic test strips places cash in the pocket of the seller and has the potential to save the life of someone that can’t afford them. The cost set by resellers is lower than what individuals would pay for the test strips in retail settings. Test strips are critical for diabetics and those selling extra strips can conceivably be saving a life while putting extra cash in their pocket.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

It’s Legal

Since diabetic test strips can be purchased over-the-counter and without a prescription, you can legally sell them. You can sell your own test strips or those of a deceased loved one. Selling test strips is legal in all 50 states in the U.S. Even if your private insurer paid for them, you can sell them.

You don’t have to worry about face-to-face meetings in public spaces to maintain safety. The transactions are conducted online for convenience.

There are millions of individuals across the nation that are missing out on extra cash and depriving themselves of the opportunity to save lives. It’s not an overly dramatic statement. Diabetics in every state are putting their health at risk for lack of sufficient test strips. Individuals with extra test strips can alleviate that risk and put some much-needed cash in their own pockets.

Many individuals don’t even know that they can sell their test strips.  Selling test strips is completely legal in all states, without any consequences, since they can be purchased over-the-counter. 

Restrictions

• The test strips were paid for by Medicaid or Medicare
• The box is opened
• The box is damaged
• They’ve expired
• They were stolen

Why would there be extra?

People have extra or unwanted diabetic test strips for a myriad of reasons. They may have been given free samples, taken advantage of a pharmacy closeout, or changed the brand of meter they use. Each meter brand uses its own particular type of test strip and they’re not interchangeable. Gestational diabetes is another reason to have extra strips.

Other times, an insurance company may provide more test strips than a person requires or an individual doesn’t need to test as often as in the past. Unfortunately, sometimes when a loved one dies, they may have leftover test strips that can be sold to help another diabetic that can’t afford the test strips they need.

The most obvious benefit for an individual is that they put cash in their pocket by selling unused or unwanted test strips. The companies that purchase extra test strips even pay for the postage if they accept the strips. There’s no reason to simply let unused test strips continue to pile up or take up space in landfills. Selling diabetic test strips helps others, the environment, and places cash in the pocket of the seller.

Now is one of the best times ever to sell your test strips. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of people have lost their job and their insurance coverage with it. The need is greater than ever before.

There’s an estimated 29 million people with diabetes according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Test strips are expensive and there are multiple factors that prohibit people from obtaining the essential tools required to manage their disease. Many insurance companies second guess doctor’s orders, refusing to pay for the number of test strips physicians prescribe and people actually need.

In a strange twist of the health care system, other insurance companies pay for more test strips than you may need. You can sell those extra test strips to earn some extra cash while helping to save the lives of others. The strips simply need to be unexpired and to have been appropriately stored to ensure their efficacy.

Selling your own diabetic test strips is completely legal. The only prohibition is if they were paid for by a government-funded insurance plan such as Medicaid or Medicare. You can make a considerable amount of extra money selling your test strips. The most expensive part of managing the disease for people is purchasing their test strips and it’s on ongoing expense every month.

By selling your extra test strips, you can make some extra money for yourself and help those with diabetes obtain the crucial strips they need to manage and monitor the disease. From 2002-2013, the price of diabetic supplies increased by approximately 300 percent. By selling your excess test strips, you can make some extra money and help save lives.

There are people across the U.S. that are using expired diabetic test strips and endangering their health – and they don’t even know it. The expiration date on a box of test strips is there as more than a recommendation. There’s a scientific reason behind the expiration date.

Test strips look simple, but they’re actually a high-tech device. They’re crafted with an enzyme and stabilizing chemicals that use a blood sample to create an electrochemical reaction that can be read by a glucose meter. The enzymes and stabilizing chemicals have a shelf life like other products. When test strips are used before the expiration date, they provide an accurate reading to help individuals monitor and manage their disease.

Using test strips after the expiration date can provide inaccurate glucose readings, causing individuals to use too much or too little insulin. Either situation places an individual’s health at risk, can result in damage to the body or even death. While each test strip manufacturer utilizes the same techniques to create test strips, each uses its own combination of chemicals and enzymes with varying viability lengths.

Adding to the risk by using expired glucose test strips is the wide range of variables that can affect an individual’s blood chemistry and glucose levels. Test strips that are within their expiration dates will filter out components from acetaminophen, steroids, statins, beta-blockers, birth control pills, and other medications that can affect readings. Expired test strips may not be able to do that with accuracy.

Using expired test strips is never recommended. Doing so can have extremely serious health impacts for those with diabetes. It’s also important that individuals ensure their test strips are stored properly to ensure accuracy within their expiration date. Don’t expose them to heat or humidity and leave them in the plastic containers they came in.

Selling your extra test strips puts some extra cash in your pocket and helps the uninsured or underinsured. However, all test strips must meet certain conditions and the most important of those is that they haven’t expired.

Each box of test strips has an expiration date and strips that have expired run the risk of providing an inaccurate reading that can imperil the health of those using them. Test strips use an enzyme that creates an electrical current activated by blood and can then be read by a glucose meter.

Expired test strips won’t provide an accurate reading and those using them could easily inject too much or not enough insulin, thereby imperiling their life. Another concern is that the glucose test strips won’t remain sterile after the expiration date. To help people with diabetes, it’s essential that you sell your test strips before they expire.

There are other factors that affect the efficacy and lifespan of test strips that include cold, heat and humidity levels. Damaged strips and those that haven’t been maintained in the proper conditions could also produce inaccurate results.

Test strips are an essential tool for people with diabetes. It helps them monitor their blood glucose levels so they can administer the appropriate amount of insulin. All brands of test strips are essentially manufactured in the same way and perform their tasks in the same manner. One of the factors that affect the longevity and stability of a specific brand of test strips is the exact enzyme that’s used, along with the stabilizing chemicals that are added.

It’s legal to sell your unused test strips in all 50 states, as long as they weren’t paid for by Medicare, Medicaid, or similarly government-funded insurance. Sell your extra or unneeded test strips well before the expiration date. You’ll be helping people with diabetes manage their disease and keep them healthy for their loved ones.
