Axcan changes assistance program.

[Guest guest]

Just a thought for

you, but after Noah was diagnosed we applied for Medical Assistance for him

(Medicaid) and our hospital helped with medical record to facilitate

that. We would not have known to do that if our other son was not

disabled with his hearing loss and the audiologist did not tell us to get him

on Medicaid. She said we should do that because we would max out our

lifetime max on the insurance quickly. With hearing loss it was easy

because it was on the “list” of accepted disabilities, but with the

PSC it did have to go before a review board. So what happens is our

insurance is used first, but then we don’t pay copays or deductibles and

that is for office visits, prescriptions, or procedures. I think it is

worth looking into. If there is anything I can do to help let me know I

am happy to.
