Her doctor should have sent paperwork to her insurance. My doctor did this for me, in turn my insurance sent me a letter saying I was approved for $139,000.00 for the year. Then a case worker called & mailed info. Then a nurse calls& will bring your first month and explain how the nebulizer works, etc. in my case I had a $2:000,00 co pay monthly. Does not shorten treatment but is in addition to the three oral meds. I turned it down as I’m 83 & decided I’d just do the oral & hopefully stop after a year...check back with her doctor. Hope this helps.

@yayaaz Often times, these meds are originally formulated for Cystic Fibrosis patients and have to come from a 'Specialty Pharmacy'. Walgreen's & CVS has specialty pharmacies. There may be others as well. You can ask your aunt's pharmacy if they are connected with a specoalty pharmacy. If not, does her insurance have any other approved pharmacies she can use? Best of luck.

It has to go through a specialty pharmacy. Go to the Arikayce website. They have the forms there and phone numbers to contact support to help you through the process of getting this prescribed.
