Arimidex Insurance Coverage

[Guest guest]

I need some specific help here. Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Georgia has

denied coverage of Arimmidex based on the fact that it is only

approved for women in the treatment of breast cancer. When they

denied the appeal, they said that even though it was clearly an

aromatase inhibitor, its use in men was " experimental " . Arimidex is

on the BCBS approved formulary drug list, just not for men.

So the next step is a panel review where I have the pleasure of

presenting my case to a Board. I am gunning for bear. Can you all

help me with experience and detail? I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.
