I was able to get the IVIG covered through an immunologist. He re-wrote the prescription I had from the Beer Center and BCBS covered it. That was 6 years ago so not sure how things may have changed in the meanwhile.
Which immunologist did you use?

OP here. Is e-tegrity test similar to ERA? My first ERA failed so I am going to repeat it. I do not have autoimmune diagnosis. It's just I've covered everything else and immunologist issue is the only thing left.

Oops, sorry—just saw that you specified without autoimmune disease. I do have Hashimotos.

Not PP, but Dr. Abbasi tells you to go to Dr. Priego. He prescribes the neupogen and IVIG. It's typically not covered now.

I do not have a diagnosed autoimmune condition like RA or lupus, but did have positive APS, which is how we were able to get it covered under insurance.
Did you do this in the DC area? If so, would you mind sharing who you saw for the IVIG and Neupogen?

You can get it for fertility now. I'm trying it, but it's a last ditch attempt

IVIG is in very short supply right now, allocation isn't going to those for fertility issues. It's being used for critical patients only, even maintenance for chronic conditions is on hold
Somebody asked about her chance to get pregnant after 50 in another thread and some people jumped in judging her for being an "older mom." Somebody else asked about adoption process and another poster came in with "all the bad things about adoption." Why can't people just move on if they don't have the answer to the posted question.
