[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 621442, member: 1233"] I am sorry that you are stuck dealing with this idiocy. Go through the paperwork to appeal and keep appealing this. Take very careful notes and keep track of them. Who you spoke to, what you were told, etc... You may need these if you end up needing to sue your ins co over this. Sadly, I am not sure that medicaid would cover the brand name medication either. I know that here they have to do a lot of extra forms to pay for a brand name and you must repeat the paperwork every so many months. At one point it was every 60 days for 6 mos, then every 90 days for 6 mos, then every six mos after that. It was annoying and not just to me. The doctor had to do paperwork each time I did and the doctor's paperwork was as complicated as they could make it. While Boo needs to be on medicaid/disability, be sure to go to the manufacturer's website to read the details of their assistance program. Some companies will not approve you if you are on medicaid/medicare because "the govt will pay". Make sure that medicaid will pay for the brand names before you apply or you could end up with new insurance but medications that still are not covered. [/QUOTE]
