Does your Plan cover the medication you need?
If you are not sure if a medication is covered by your private insurance plan, your insurance carrier must be contacted to determine the extent of your coverage. We will need to supply the insurance company with your policy number or group health benefits number (if you do not know this number, the Human Resources manager at your employer will have it). The insurance carrier will also require the name of the drug and the drug information number (DIN) of the particular medication you are prescribed. Please contact our Clinic Administrator for further information or if you have any questions. The following are the medications currently provided at Provis Infusion Clinic:
