Amy,

I'd be glad to put my experience on the insurance issues but I don't know how helpful it would be to someone who doesn't have my insurance plan. I don't seem to have run into as many roadblocks as some people. They have very clear provisions about covering the prescription PEG food if it's medically necessary. I have no idea what my medical oncologist's office put in the letter of medical necessity that convinced them it was/is in my case but it seems to have worked once they got several copies of the letter!

I just had to call them again, Friday, about a new statement where they had again refused to cover the latest shipments of Jevity because there is some kind of incorrect billing code that Lincare is using. When I call, they take the billing code off and send it through the system again and it gets paid (at least so far).
