[QUOTE="slsh, post: 621217, member: 8"] I did delegate this issue to husband, in terms of dealing with his company. They have an advocacy group and it sounds like they're looking into it. (Yeah husband for stepping up!) His employer is self-insured so... hopefully we'll make some headway. I run into this all the time at work, ins. companies (mostly Medicare) refusing to pay for medications. It just boggles my mind that accountants are making medical decisions. It's penny wise, pound foolish in my humble opinion. The cost of 2 seizures will wipe out any "savings" they get by only paying for generics. To say nothing of the trauma to Boo. LOL, Janet. You do make me laugh. Not getting younger.... hon, you have no *idea* how old I am these days. Way beyond my years. I know I need to bite the bullet and get him on SSI and then get him on Medicaid. The thought of dealing with the bureaucratic bologna really just makes me ill. Truly. I would love to wait until we get out of this godforsaken state, but that's at least another 15 years, and of course while we are in the process of getting Boo certified as a disabled adult child (oxymoron anyone?) so he can stay on husband's insurance past 26, Murphy does rule our world with a heavy hand so I probably should get on the whole SSI/Medicaid thing sooner than later. UGH. [/QUOTE]
