1 Blood glucose meters vary tremendously. 2  For those without insurance, a meter can cost between $8.99 and $1,150, but averages $20-$80. 3  While all meters perform the same function, the cost depends primarily on the meter's extra features.dditional costs: 1  Each blood glucose meter should include the meter itself, a logbook to record results, test strips and lancets. 2  Some blood glucose meteres include a digital display for the test results or cords that connect the machine to a computer so readings can be downloaded.
Over 5 years, actual costs were $8380 for trabeculectomy and $10,594 for tube insertion. However, patient utility was slightly higher in the tube group than in the trabeculectomy group (3.38 vs 3.31 QALYs). Cost-effectiveness ratios were $2532 per QALY for trabeculectomy and $3134 per QALY for tube insertion.he results of a cost-effectiveness analysis based on a meta-analysis of published literature were presented here at the American Glaucoma Society 24th Annual Meeting by Richard Kaplan, BA, a graduating medical student at Columbia University in New York City.
