I'm trying to find out if MassHealth (state Medicaid) will cover IV (with the prescribing llmd being out-of-network). has anyone been able to get it covered and have any tips?

If Medicaid won't cover it, I absolutely can't afford to pay out of pocket and would need to look into a low income drug program. Does anyone know the best one to use for Rocephin and if they will cover more than a month?

I'm a little lost about how to go about all this and would be so grateful for any advice/experiences. If you don't feel comfortable posting here, please PM me! thanks so much!

Hi Blue

Who's your LLMD? PM me for that, no doctors names here.

In my experience with Masshealth they cover EVERYTHING!

My son had it for a while and we were NEVER denied any treatment or doctor.

It may depend on what plan you have, but I personally don't think you will have too much trouble.
