Title: Health Insurance Company (Boo)
Post by: jay on December 31, 2018, 10:49:41 AM
A friend has a very serious illness.  The doctor prescribed a medication that had to be compounded by a pharmacist.

The health insurance company would not pay for the prescribed medication.

Why?

One of the compounded ingredients was an over the counter drug, and for this reason the insurance company would not pay for the prescription.

That stinks.

I remember someone a few years ago telling us that healthcare in the USA needed improvement and then did something about it. Too bad that something wasn't even close to actually helping. It's even worse today.
