Insurance
 

Does medicair cover ketamine or IVIG infusions? Is anybody on it that would know? I finally got my SSDI, so hopefully now i can get working on getting the right treatments I need and medications better managed.

Nobody on medicare that recieves eather of these treatments?

Not sure where you are from, but I was notified here in Florida that my Medicare has a 24 month wait from when SSDI says you were disabled until the medicare becomes effective. So, then I called ss a few months before I hit the 24 month wait to ask about filling out paperwork and then I found out that in addition to the 24 month wait there have a 6 month deferral added on, so basically your Medicare is not usable until 30 months have passed since your disability. Now, I am way under the "normal" retirement age, so they tack on these stipulations. So I wish you luck, I only have 4 months to go until I get my coverage.

Bye, Kim

Thanks kim, i already am way passed since my intial disability, so I am now coverd fully. I am way under the "normal" retirement age aswell. Have you checked to see if the ketamine is coverd yet? I guess I will call somebody an see whats coverd.
