Hy-Vee stores in Lincoln and across Nebraska are providing free A1C screenings to residents in the month of April.
These blood tests measure average blood sugar levels over the past two to three months. This is a common test used to identify prediabetes or diabetes. Registration is required for the free A1C screening and can be done online at hy-veehealthyyou.com.
Once registered, a local Hy-Vee dietitian will reach out to schedule a screening based on availability. Free A1C screenings are only available while supplies last. Hy-Vee is providing 1,500 free tests to stores all across the 8-states in which they do business.
