@totty I was curious about that about that as well. I asked my pharmacist and was told that the doctor must have the correct "diagnostic code" on the prescription in order for insurance to cover my 7% saline. I did a google search and it appears that J479 is the code for bronchiectasis. You might ask your doctor about that and hope that he/she is familiar with it. I will be asking my Pulmo in December at my next appointment. Bill

Thanks so much Bill! We see a new physician Oct 31 and I will inquire. We see Dr Patrick Flume at MUSC and would never have known about him if not for this wonderful support group! We were able to listen to the seminar at Kiawah, SC, held early September and shortly after were told the physician in Jax would not be seeing patients in office in the future so it worked out well fir us that we were aware of Dr Flume. We certainly need each other!
