Medicare advice needed. I am 64 and my wonderful wife who is a nurse gives my Radicava infusions at our home in Ohio. My work insurance covers the home infusions. I soon have to sign up for Medicare as my work insurance stops when I am 65. Does anyone have advice on having Medicare cover home infusions. I understand it would need to be covered under Part D as a drug but it takes special approval which includes a formulary exception from the doctor. An advantage or supplemental plan is also needed. I understand approval is not guaranteed. We were thinking about going with Part G versus an advantage plan.
Just want to see what coverage others have gotten to have home infusions and Radicava paid for. Which Medicare providers cover it under D (Anthem, Humana?..)? Do you need a supplemental or advantage plan and could you suggest a provider who is known to cover home infusions? Any help and info would be appreciated!
