Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 We have been going through the same thing with some of Aubrey's medicines, not her growth hormone though, but instead her medicine for her lungs. There is a form(and wouldn't you know it I can't remember the name of it) well anyway what this form says is basically the medicine is a neccessary and why the child needs it and that the other brands won't work. We had to do this with Aubrey's Xopenex and it was quite an ordeal, actually took about a week. We are still getting papers in the mail where the pharmacy kept running it through to medicaid and they denied it. Finally after the pharmacy ran it through I would say about 20 times it went through. I'm not sure if this is any help since it's different kind of medicine, but hopefully it will be of little help.

My son is on a medicaid waiver, and has BCBS as his primary insurance company, and medicaid picks up co-pays. I am not sure if I can help, as each state handles medicaid differently, but I would be willing to try and help you.
