[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you know for sure the medication wouldn’t be covered? [/quote] I don't know *for sure* but it's an insanely expensive drug (ofev) generally understood to be used to treat a disease (pulmonary fibrosis) rather than enhance quality of life, even though enhancing quality of life is definitely a secondary effect. I can't find anywhere to check that gets specific with medications. Everywhere I look lists general guidelines which heavily imply to me that it would not be covered. If anyone knows of a resource where I could look/call that will know specific medications rather than guidelines, I'd love to hear it.[/quote] You don’t go to hospice until you’re ready to stop all care that prolongs life[/quote] This.
