@elisabeth007, could be! I called Medicare when wondering if bone marker testing would be covered and was told that they would be if the MD would indicate they are medically necessary. Maybe I was given false information.

This is probably the link you mentioned?

i have found that its best to get such information in writing. Do you know how to use the text function of Medicare. i would suggest being very specific and naming the specific tests and asking what the specific documentation from your dr needs to say.
