Insurance paying for protein drinks....



Recommended Posts

Today I received 4 cases of premiere protien each contains 18 servings and a 30 day supply of liquid Multivitamin. Looks like some papers I'm supposed to fill out and return as well but I'm working right now and didn't have a chance to really look them over..yayy Friday!

Are they the kind with the red top or the foil!? I had just started getting the red tops and I was so happy bc I didn't have chalk on my lips lol! Hoping they come in the "new" style but hey free is free!

How far out do they cover it? I'm 10 months out and could sure use the help buying shakes. I skip a lot if days now as it is with finances. It would be so awesome to get them regularly ! Oh and I'm a little over halfway to goal

I have like a 10.00 copay for generic prescriptions. Some more and some less. My card has CVS Care mark on it. Sorry I can't tell you more about my coverage. I don't personally take any daily medicines so I'm not very familiar with it.

My friend that told me about this has a completely different insurance policy than me and her company approved her as well. I do know this - the three people I know who have the sleeve (including myself) all were approved to receive shakes.

So I'm telling everyone I know because those shakes are EXPENSIVE!!

One more thing, the Rep I talked to at my prescription company didn't show Premier products listed or anything even remotely similar. However, I thought shoot they'll pay for crutches so why not check this out.

Now my husband wants to know what else they will pay for that we never knew about lol.

I have cvs caremark as well and it pays for my shakes and Vitamins

      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? 🤷‍♀️
