| For anyone interested here's my experience/journey so far - I have a Minimed 715 and am trying to get coverage for the CGMS portion of the 722.
I'm part of Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolg to BCBS.
Also, I'm working with my employer to try toina (BCBSNC) Medtronic faxed over a prior authorization request, which was basically a letter from my doctor talking about why the CGMS was good for me, to BCBSNC. Got a denial letter 2 days later. Now I'm drafting an appeal letter which I'll be sending directly to BCBS.
A second front of attack is trying to change my company's insurance plan coverage. My company has a self-funded insurance plan and they get to tell the insurance co. what to cover by making changes to the plan. I'm praying hard that they'll be able to do something.
Of course, I'll be sure to post updates here. |
