At AmeriHealth, we are always looking for ways to provide our members with greater value for high quality health care. Based on this, we are changing our preferred test strips and monitors available for members who have been diagnosed with diabetes to use in monitoring their disease.

Effective January 1, 2020, AmeriHealth is changing the preferred test strips for diabetic care for commercial members to the OneTouch Verio^® test strips. These replace the current preferred test strips provided by Ascensia Diabetes Care (formerly Bayer Health Care LLC) and Abbott Laboratories.

Free meters and information for members

With the changes in preferred test strips, AmeriHealth is offering a free OneTouch Verio^® or OneTouch Verio Flex^® meter. The new meters can be used with the preferred brand OneTouch Verio^® test strips. Members affected by this change will receive a letter regarding the change, as well as details on how to obtain a free meter and starter kit.
