Has anyone had any success having Elecare formula covered through GHI?

I am going to be in the same boat soon...but as someone shared here..it's not through GHI..it's through the UFT welfare fund..you have to call them and then fax over a note from your doc..once they agree that it is med. necessary they cover it. good luck!

Re: GHI - Elecare (NYC teachers)
My husband is a NYC teacher and we had Similac Alimentum covered through the UFT. I called up the UFT Welfare Fund number (let me know if you need it) and I asked to speak to the pharmacist, he was really nice, I explained the situation with DS to him, he told me exactly what I needed to fax them (a dr. letter stating DS had a milk allergy, not an interlorance, they wouldnt approve an intolerance), my dr. wrote anything I needed in the letter along with a Rx for how much formula I would need per month. Once I faxed the info, they approved it within 48 hours and I was able to order my formula through CVS every month, our co-pay was $35, not sure what it would be with elecare but probably the same amount.
