Guest guest Posted April 5, 2000 Report Share Posted April 5, 2000 Several people have written in that they cannot, or do not know, how to get approval for Enbrel. I could swear that I read Enbrel WAS approved for PA some time ago. Those of us that are on Enbrel had our doctors get the approval. In my case, all he had to say was that the MTX was not working (it caused my throat to swell to shut...an allergic reaction) and my insurance okayed the Enbrel. Are your doctors doing the necessary paperwork for you to get approval? Why not call your insuring companies directly and find out what they need to get their approval? Then tell your doctor. Also ask the NAF for any information about Enbrel and PA in order to push for your insuraning company to pay. Enbrel really helps without some of the side effects of the other meds. It is sure worth trying. Good luck. Poulsbo, WA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
