P.E.I. Helping Diabetics

Finally a province that is starting to make sense. PEI decided to cover up to 100 test strips for blood sugar monitoring with an $11 deductible on a monthly basis. This will save people around $80 a month to keep up with their diabetes maintenance.

Now, if the other provinces in Canada would follow suit, this would certainly help the senior and low income population deal with this disease.
