Re: allimentum/nutramigen
My son was on Nutramigen and it was covered in full, except for a $35.00 co-pay per month (where they really gave me almost 2 months worth- he was on powder).
I have GHI, but my Rx insurance is The Welfare Fun - NYC teachers.

Re: allimentum/nutramigen
Each plan will be different. Your employer dictates what your plan includes and excludes. The best bet is to call the ins co directly and ask. DHs (United) excluded it outright no matter what. Mine (Aetna) paid after you tried soy, goat and a bunch of other stuff. My ins would cost the same to add the girls than it would for formula.

Re: allimentum/nutramigen
Empire covers 100% for RTF for us. They originally sent powder but I called and requested they send RTF since I had to add cereal to thicken and it was too much powder to mix well in a bottle. They didn't have a problem changing it for me.

This for us as well. It's been a Godsend! Ey deliver automatically a months supply. If I am ready before they ship, I just call and request earlier ship date.
