Krankie,
I am sorry to ehar of the problems they are starting.
When they did not refill the medication, did you change doctors or pharmacy, was it a weekend and now they have a third party provider that could not verify?

Each of these times red flags went up and De was denied. BUT her secondary medicare medicaide picked up the cost.
Part D aarp also pays for brand! IT was a three dollar co-pay. She maxed out to the point where the medicare gap is, but maedicaide is still paying...and the brands,

As far as the IME, if it is in Phila ask for transportation, even if you want to take someone and the cost is increased for it, worth the aggrivation of parking, tolls fee's and gas reimbursments.

Is it a woman doc in Baly Cynwyd?

Why not ask for a local IME, Dr. DiGiovonni a neurologist that Dr. T was in the office with for a period of time, is now up in Plains near the SPCA, has been reasonably fair...better than ANY, ANY IME do'c I met and I have met several!

He treats RSD, Fybromyagia, TOS. This would be most favorable to you!

Watch for the cameras and trackers!
Di
