Insurance to pay for protein shakes

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.

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.

Animism the doctor that did your surgery

Insurenutrition worked for me as well. I have Aetna

Good luck!!!

Are their protein shakes good?

It's premier protein. Delish!

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

It's premier protein. Delish!

I got approved last wk they called me.

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!
