To get a glucose monitor (glucometer) for free or at a reduced price, consider the following options:

1. Contact Glucose Monitor Manufacturers:
- Reach out directly to the manufacturers of glucose monitors. They often provide free devices in hopes that you'll purchase their testing supplies and accessories.

2. Check with Your Insurance:
- Some health insurance plans may cover the full or partial cost of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) or blood glucose meters. Review your insurance plan details.

3. Consult Your Healthcare Provider:
- Ask your endocrinologist or healthcare provider for recommendations on which brands to try and if they know of any current offers or programs.

4. Online Resources:
- Look for online resources that list manufacturers offering free glucometers. Always verify with your physician before choosing a brand.

5. CR3 Diabetes Association:
- If you meet certain criteria (e.g., no insurance, high deductible, household income below $60,000), you may qualify for free insulin supplies, including glucose meters, from the CR3 Diabetes Association.

These steps can help you find a glucose monitor that fits your needs and budget.

Not sure what you mean by " the Arm meter." Do you mean a Continuous Glucose Monitor, (or CGM) or something else?
