Our insurance is ble shield and the pharmacy immediately told us pro topic was not covered. After thinking about we went back and were going to have the pharmacy submit it and get the denial. A different pharmacy clerk helped us and she chaned the quantity requested and it was approved pending doctor verification. Now we are just waiting for that. Try having them change the quantity
my daughter's dermatologist "Dr. Apathy" is not being very helpful at all doing an appeal for my daughter's insurance to pay for protopic.. He's apathetic, his office staff are just plain rude.. is there any way I can have my daughter's pediatrician help me with it?? Can she help with the paperwork?
I was first prescribed Dovonex, Protopic, and another cream mixture that the dermatologist recommended the pharmacist make. My insurance didn't cover Protopic so they gave me Elidel. It didn't work and about 9 months later, the nurses at the dermatologist's office sent some type of note to my insurance saying I had to get Protopic since Elidel hadn't worked. Ask about Elidel.
I tried elidel. It doesn't work. With the dovonex i am seeing some color. But it is very slow. MY dermatologist sent a request twice and they said i have to use a generic before they will approve the protopic. Which i did ,but they still won't approve it.Did the dovonex work for you?
