I am so upset....UPDATE!!!!
So I had my injection class today and it went great. They told me to call my nurse and find out about when I would be getting my meds. Well I called the nurse and she said that they are still waiting for approval from the insurance and to call back Friday. THEN, in the mail today I got a letter from the insurance that they are rejecting my claim to have an IUI done!! I am in tears, I think it said because policy is 1 year of infertility, and on the form it said for me, reacurrent PG loss and infertility for 5 months!! Which is WRONG, my last M/C was in July!! And we have been trying since August 06.. Of course when we got the mail, all of the offices were closed....
UPDATE: My husband is the best, he has been on the phone all day trying to correct this! And it was all my fault, I put the wrong dates (actually years) of my 2 m/c's so with the dates I put it looked like I had my last m/c in December(which would only be 5 months of infertility instead of a year) not last May!! Hopefully this will all get sorted out before AF comes!!!

Re: I am so upset
do you live in NY? I'm not sure the specifics but it's state mandated that insurances have to allow IUIs I thought. I could be wrong but it's definitely worth giving your insurance company a call... it could be that they need prior authorization from your dr. due to your previous circumstances. GL!!!

Re: I am so upset
They rejected my claim for the IUI, not just the meds, I haven't heard about that yet...Oh and I am in Virginia.

I would call and argue it. See if theres anything that can be done to change their mind.

Re: I am so upset
Have your doctor change the coding on the paperwork. He probably didn't know and it was coded as recurrent miscarriage instead of infertility. I am sure you will get it straightened out!

Re: I am so upset
This is seriously messed up. Why insurance companies get to decide what is covered and what is not is beyond me. If a doctor says it should be covered then that should be it. Its almost enough to make me want to move to Mass or NJ.
