Wyoming - State Insurance and Assistance Programs for Persons with Diabetes
Hock's offers 30-50% discounted prices on diabetes supplies. We cannot specifically recommend or endorse any company but we have been listing Hock's in our resource directory for over a year as one of the two cheapest online companies to purchase from. We recently affiliated with Hock's because our own experience with them has been so positive. If you do place an order through our site, they will contribute financially towards our cause and you will get reasonable prices for diabetes supplies. Wyoming Health Insurance Pool Wyoming Department of Family Services Assistance Programs Kid Care Children's Health Insurance Plan (CHIP) - Kid Care CHIP offers health insurance coverage for Wyoming’s children and teens through age 18 who are uninsured and meet income and eligibility guidelines.

The target clients are all Wyoming citizens who are interested in reviewing their prescribed and nonprescribed medication regimens for adverse drug reactions, duplicate therapy, and possible cost savings. The goal of the service is to encourage clients to take a more active role in their health care regimen, and to improve the relationship with their primary health care provider and their community pharmacist.
