What's included
Everything you need to start, in one place
Not a coupon. Not a discount. A real tool, the training to use it, and a class to keep you going.
Your glucometer
A dependable blood-sugar meter, included with the program — so cost is never the reason you go without one.
Hands-on training
Your doctor's office staff show you how to test, read your numbers, and care for your meter — right there, in person.
The Living in Control class
Friendly, plain-language diabetes education to help you manage day to day — and earn VibePoints toward supplies.
How it works
Four steps, through the doctor you trust
Your meter doesn’t arrive cold in the mail. It comes through your doctor’s office, with a real person to show you how.
Ask your doctor
Your primary doctor writes a prescription for a glucometer and sends it to HealthViber.
We send the meter
We deliver your meter to the doctor's office — where it's waiting for you.
Pick it up & learn
Collect your meter and get trained on the spot by the office staff.
Join the class
Enroll in Living in Control and earn VibePoints as you learn.
No doctor? No insurance?
You still have a place to start
- We help you find a provider near you who serves people without insurance.
- Where we can, we help make the connection — so you have a real place to start, not a list to sort alone.
- Once you have a provider, you can get the prescription that opens the door to your meter.
Our honest promise: we’ll try our best. We can’t promise a nearby option always exists — some areas simply don’t have facilities that serve people without insurance — but we’ll search our network and beyond to find the closest care we can, and be straight with you about what’s available.
