He had a former practice before moving to the new location and he allowed his old patients to continue with medicare and Medicaid. I was told if I wanted them to pay for them that I would have to summit whatever the other insurance wouldn't pay. I have been with a new doctor since 2010 so don't know what Getsons doing with paying anymore. But with me both my medicare and Medicaid wouldn't pay for infusions or for the home medication my blue cross which is now atnea has paid for it the past 7 years I have been on it. If others have been able to get medicare or Medicaid to pay for it that's great.
