Bariatric Surgery vs Weight Loss Medications
What if my Insurance does not Cover Weight Loss Medications?
"I have a prescription. How can I appeal my health insurer’s denial of weight loss injectables? "
"If your doctor prescribed medication but your insurer denied coverage, you have the right to appeal your health plan’s denial of benefits for covered services that you and your health care provider (doctor, hospital, etc.) believe are medically necessary. There are two kinds of appeals - internal appeal and external review. You can learn how to file the appeals here. "
