EMSAM is COVERED by HMO Blue New England!!!

Posted by Enigma on April 14, 2006, at 13:32:20

I just called today, and it turns out than Anthem, BS/BS HMO Blue New England WILL be covering EMSAM, $30 co-pay for 31 day supply.
I'm sure other insurance companies will be doing the same, if they haven't already.
As depressed as I am at the moment, I still have to say I'm very "happy" about this.
MAOI's are the *only* meds that have ever been effective for my atypical treatment resistant depression. I was on Parnate and couldn't tolerate the side-effects, and Nardil as well, same story, but less side-effects. I'm hoping EMSAM will help me, as I'm fairly hopeless right now.
Take care.
