Blood-Sample Size 

Blood Glucose Meters require smaller blood samples that make testing less painful. If you're sensitive to needles, look for a meter that requires less than one microliter of blood. 

Price 

It's not always necessary that only the most expensive devices provides the best results. Many brands value their products at low-cost rates, and they work just as efficiently as any of the high-priced products. It's the test strips that make a blood glucose monitoring device expensive.

Ease, Usage, and Maintenance 

Some meters are comparatively simple and easier to use than others. They can be used straight out of the box as well. Various models come with an easy-slide slip ejection for the test strips. These devices make your work more manageable, and you don't have to worry about manually changing the pieces, either. 

Warranty  

Most of the Glucometers usually come with an extended warranty period. Specifically, Accu-check machines come with a warranty of 10 years.

Insurance Coverage

To buy the Blood Glucose Meter, you don’t need a prescription as they are found over the counter of any medicine shop. But because the costs of these amenities are high, considering the chronic problems that accompany it, often insurance companies cover the strips and the machine.

Automatic Coding 

As you need to calibrate your device before taking every sample, it's essential to consider a glucometer that can be calibrated automatically. Due to poor calibration, it can give incorrect information and inaccurate results.
