FREE A1C SCREENINGS!

Date: 11/12/2019
Time:  3:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Type: Screenings/Vaccinations
Location: Hy-Vee Healthy You Mobile Lenexa Hy-Vee

Hemoglobin A1C is a simple blood test that individuals living with diabetes use to manage their blood glucose levels.  Hemoglobin A1c provides an indication of an individual's average blood glucose level over the past 2-3 months.  While it is recommended that those living with Diabetes complete 4 Hemoglobin A1C screenings per year (1 every 3 months), many people's insurance only covers two screenings per year.  An A1C screening is also a good way for others to find out if they may be at risk for pre-diabetes or diabetes. 

Stop by the Hy-Vee Healthy You Mobile bus at your Lenexa Hy-Vee from 3-7 p.m. on Tuesday, November 12, for a FREE screening to see where you stand.  Your Lenexa Hy-Vee Dietitian, Jamie, is an expert on nutrition and can provide additional information to help you manage your Diabetes! 

Note: You do not have to fast for this test, as the result takes into account your fasting and non-fasting blood glucose levels over the last several months.
