Has your doctor sent a letter stating why you need this? Usually it will be approved if the doctor sends this letter. Good luck with it! 🙂

Thank you. I actually spoke with someone in my neurologist’s office yesterday who seemed to know a bit more about Medicare than the doctor. So, I’m hoping this will advance the effort.
When I was working through private insurance, there was a similar situation handled by the pharmaceutical side of the company, but ultimately I was able to get approval.
