Why does the Accu-Chek Aviva Nano system still use a code chip?
Roche Diagnostics retained the code chip for 5 reasons: 1. It can provide feature upgrades (such as faster test times and smaller sample sizes) without the need to buy a new meter. 2. It is designed to prevent the use of expired test strips. 3. It helps to ensure more accurate results by reducing the inherent variability in all test strips. 4. It is easy to use. Unlike some systems that require you to scroll through multiple numbers to code the meter manually, the code chip for the Accu-Chek Aviva Nano systems just snaps in place. 5.
