Leslie Dawson's book on tips to save up to $3,000 a year on your diabetes costs delivers on the promise. However, only one thing is not clear from reading the cover: this book is mostly focused on tips for very low-income and homeless persons who suffer diabetes. Though a handful of the tips you will find may be useful to middle class readers, the majority of the chapters offer advice about programs and oppportunities that someone with a middle class income and above would not qualify for. Besides this, it is an excellent book that every library should carry for the benefit of the people that really need this type of tips the most: the ones who suffer such an expensive condition with very limited financial resources to face it.

Written by freelance medical writer Leslie Y. Dawson (who has lived with diabetes for 25 years) and published by the American Diabetes Association, How To Save Up To $3000 A Year On Your Diabetes Costs is an extremely practical and authoritative guide to conserving money while maintaining the diabetes health care of the highest quality for oneself or a loved one. Individual chapters deftly address how to buy medications through the mail or the Internet; sources of free or low-cost health care; ways to reduce food costs while increasing nutrition value; how to get specialized prescription discount cards from drug companies; and so much more. An extremely practical, readable, and user-friendly guide that literally pays for itself, How To Save Up To $3000 A Year On Your Diabetes Costs should be a mandatory addition to all community library Diabetes reference collections -- and urgently recommended reading for anyone having to deal with the high and rising costs of modern medicine with respect to dealing with diabetes. Plainly states -- if you have diabetes, or are responsible for someone who does, then you need to get hold of a copy and carefully read this book from cover to cover!
