OH yes, your insurance will cover them.. unless they get nasty about expensive orals or IV. I never had a problem at all in 4 yrs of treatment.

Typically your insurance will cover the meds, just as if they were rx'ed by any other doctor.

This doesn't mean that they will cover anything and everything, willy-nilly. They didn't cover my Bicillin, nor did they cover any IV costs after 28 days of treatment.

However, there are other people with different insurance plans who did get their IM and IV abx covered.

Orals are usually not a problem to get covered.
