Insurance to pay for protein shakes



Recommended Posts

I am going to try it, I just completed the forms and hopefully its approved, I am currently paying 80 bucks a month or Protein shakes and $150 every 90 days for Vitamins, so hopefully its approve if not I will continue to pay for them.

Insure Nutritions works! Not a scam, as long as your insurance covers Protein supplements. They also send you a cream for scars and bariatric Vitamins, only thing I paid was the shipping. I had to stay on the doctors office and Insure Nutritions people about faxing, signing and sending prescriptions.

Hello, was wondering did your insurance carrier pay for Protein Shakes? I heard of a site name insurenutrition.com and they accept insurance. Some say it's a scam and some say it not a scam.

They got mine approved w/inscription Co along w/bars. Urban Dr has to approve & sign a paper they fax them.

I have a question about Premier shakes. My doctor says that I need to make sure that my Protein Shakes have whey Protein isolate as the first ingredient. Like iso pure and Bariatric Advantage and Unjury. Premier's first ingredient has whey protein concentrate, which she told me to stay away from. Does anyone know the difference? Will insurance pay for any other protein shakes other than premier?

It probably would be a very good idea to call your doctor or whoever is signing this off as a prescription, and explain you need this. my doc is very one on one and would sign this if i asked... but perhaps having it come at them in the mail without your input, they don't know and don't sign. Call your doc and explain it is coming, and please sign. Even tell them perhaps what you are spending and that this would really help.

Even the ones that didn't sign, perhaps you can call the doc and explain. One on one really helps with things like this.

Also remember, this may very likely be a tax deduction.. it is medically needed. Talk to your tax person.

I received my package the other day! Everything was covered by my insurance. I love the Premier Protein drinks!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
