Did you call Apria?

Did you call Continued care?

they should 100% be able to help you..
You need the letter from the specialist and other documents and they should send it!

There are NY States laws about this. Do a google search. I am pretty sure they must cover it

I did it myself. My doctor had to send a letter of medical necessity (which they have a template for, it's really common) and then my insurance company sent some form for my doctor to fill in. That was all it took. My son was on Neocate, which I got through a pharmacy.

Do a search on here for Apria, they have helped a lot of families on here. Chat Icon Plus they arrange for it to be sent to your house every month which is nice.

There are loopholes unfortunately. And some insurance companies won't cover Alimentum/Nutramigen since they are available on store shelves. Chat Icon
