Denied! When I received my last Ocrevus treatment (4.13.21) I discussed starting a new medication with my PA that may help with my leg as well as exhaustion. Of course they had to get it approved by the insurance company as usual, but Friday I received a sweet love note from the insurance company denying the coverage of the medication. 😡🤬😤! . . It stated I could call the prescribing doctor as well as file an appeal. I get the “process”, but when it’s your health that is in the middle of it, frustrating doesn’t even describe it. 😞 . . Luckily I opened it Saturday and had a few days to cool off. I called my neurologist office and left a message and was told a nurse would get back with me. To my surprise 20 mins later the nurse called me back and said they are handling the appeal and just is just hoops we have to jump through. I was so relieved to hear I wouldn’t have to take care of the paper work aspect for the appeal! I should hear back in a week. 🤞💊🧡 . . #ms #multiplesclerosisfitness #newmedication #denied #deniedcoverage #frustrating #medicalinsurance #waitinggame https://www.instagram.com/p/CObaLKuDhiH/?igshid=55xond35xx18
