    Medical Money Savers

    1. Keep weight stable. It is the healthy thing to do. This will save on grocery and clothing expenses. Long term savings on medical expenses.
    2. Get prescription meds in bulk quantity of 100 versus thirty day supply especially if you are paying for your meds.
      Buy nonprescription medical items in bulk when on sale. You will be amazed at your savings when you buy a six to twelve month supply on sale. This tip is also effective for emergency preparedness.
    3. Check with your state provisions for health care. Many states have low cost insurance plans available. For instance, in Florida the program is Cover Florida, http://www.coverfloridahealthcare.com/. Check what your state has to offer by contacting the state health agency.
    4. Talk with your doctor by phone, fax, and email to save on the cost of an office visit payment. Just think about the number of office visits you have been to where all you did was talk (after waiting for a long while). Save your time and money.
    5. For blood pressure checks, get yourself a home blood pressure monitor. Call in your readings. Many doctors will discover that your blood pressure is actually stable when the stress of the doctor's white coat is absent. For diabetics, a home glucometer is very useful for monitoring blood sugar.

    Invest in your most important asset - YOU.

    Great health is true wealth!
