A meter configured to determine an analyte concentration of a fluid sample using a test sensor, the meter comprising: a display; a body portion including at least one opening formed therein; a detector proximate to the at least one opening, the detector being configured to detect whether the at least one opening includes a test sensor; a memory configured to store a plurality of stored analyte concentrations; characterized in that the meter comprises: at least one user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) positioned on the body portion and configured to allow the user to physically interact with the meter; and a processor having a selectively activated processing feature configured to inhibit the stored analyte concentrations from being displayed on the display, the processing feature being activated when the detector determines that the test sensor is positioned within the at least one opening, wherein the meter determines whether a predetermined condition exists, wherein the predetermined condition includes a test sensor being positioned within the opening, characterised in that if the meter determines that the predetermined condition exists, the stored analyte concentrations are inhibited from being displayed on the display, wherein the user receives an audible message or a message on the display indicating that the user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) was pressed, that stored test results may not be viewed during a testing procedure, and if the meter determines that the predetermined condition does not exist, the meter display stored analyte concentrations. a display; a body portion including at least one opening formed therein; a detector proximate to the at least one opening, the detector being configured to detect whether the at least one opening includes a test sensor; a memory configured to store a plurality of stored analyte concentrations; characterized in that the meter comprises: at least one user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) positioned on the body portion and configured to allow the user to physically interact with the meter; and a processor having a selectively activated processing feature configured to inhibit the stored analyte concentrations from being displayed on the display, the processing feature being activated when the detector determines that the test sensor is positioned within the at least one opening, wherein the meter determines whether a predetermined condition exists, wherein the predetermined condition includes a test sensor being positioned within the opening, characterised in that if the meter determines that the predetermined condition exists, the stored analyte concentrations are inhibited from being displayed on the display, wherein the user receives an audible message or a message on the display indicating that the user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) was pressed, that stored test results may not be viewed during a testing procedure, and if the meter determines that the predetermined condition does not exist, the meter display stored analyte concentrations. at least one user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) positioned on the body portion and configured to allow the user to physically interact with the meter; and a processor having a selectively activated processing feature configured to inhibit the stored analyte concentrations from being displayed on the display, the processing feature being activated when the detector determines that the test sensor is positioned within the at least one opening, wherein the meter determines whether a predetermined condition exists, wherein the predetermined condition includes a test sensor being positioned within the opening, characterised in that if the meter determines that the predetermined condition exists, the stored analyte concentrations are inhibited from being displayed on the display, wherein the user receives an audible message or a message on the display indicating that the user-interface mechanism (18, 18a-c) was pressed, that stored test results may not be viewed during a testing procedure, and if the meter determines that the predetermined condition does not exist, the meter display stored analyte concentrations.
