IVIG/Intralipds Covered by Medco or Pica?
Hi,
DH is a NYC schoolteacher so our meds are covered by the UFT plan which uses Medco and Pica for injectibles. Does anyone know if either covers IVIG or intralipids? Thanks.

I know Medco covered my intralipids but for IVIG I had to pay out of pocket. I did have a co-pay for intralipids but it was not that much. I was also covered by a home health care nurse to come over and administer but instead I paid out of pocket for the nurse at my doctors office to come over and do it for me.

I have MEDCO/ACCREDO as a specialty pharmacy. But under my UH plan, I don't have Intralipid or Infusion therapy coverage. I think it depends upon your plan.
