Insurance paying for protein drinks....



Recommended Posts

I got the same recording so I dialed the number that shows up on my caller ID. Sharon answered at Insure and they had no clue the 800 number isn't working. She said she would report it ASAP.

She also said you can dial her at her direct number of 323 406 9044 until this 800 number problem is resolved.

Hope this helps!

A representative just called me. She faxed over the scripts to be signed by my surgeon this morning. I'll follow-up with them at my appointment tomorrow. Once he signs them and sends them back we'll see if my insurance company will cover it. She's getting me the scar cream too. We'll see what happens.

Is this just for those recently having surgery only? What if u are not but have issues with getting Protein levels up

They did finally email me back saying that my insurance (Cigna) won't cover any of it. I tried.

I tried...I have Aetna, and waiting to hear back from them. Right after I signed up, I did a search on Aetna and their policy on coverage...what I found was that they do not cover any type of shakes or drinks, so I guess it's just a matter of time before I get the denial call.

I just called them back(they had asked me to call over a week ago but my Aunt passed away so been out of town) She clarified my info asked for Health Insurance first and said typically when filling out the online form you should put your health insurance info & ID then when they call you you provide your prescription info, thought that may help some of you who are confused at sign up like I was. My doc already faxed back my prescriptions and I should know by the end of the week if I am approved! Fingers crossed!

Holy Cow I just got a shipping notification so that must mean my Premier Protein is covered!!!! Thanks SO much for the heads up! I haven't received the call yet but my stuff should arrive on Tuesday :)

I find it interesting that my surgery was not covered! I have Blue Cross of Idaho and CVS Caremark for RX! How awesome!!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
