Hi Gail:  If your doctor says that you need the Procrit for possibly low 
platelets, or anemia then you  might have to put in an appeal with your 
insurance company.  I am so fed up with the insurances.  The oncologist who has 
been taking care of me since day 1, now does not take my insurance.  I am 
paying double now, and the hospital he works out of does not take my 
insurance.  I will have to be referred to another Oncologist, if I develop any 
problems.  The system really stinks..You have to fight for everything.  I have 
learned that through the years.  Good Luck Gail

Hello,

I was diagnosed with CML in May 2004.  Have been receiving Procrit
weekly for all this time.  Suddenly my insurance company has decided
to deny a refill of my prescription because they say procrit is not
indicated for myeloid leukemia.  Anybody know why?  What arguments can
I use when appealing this decision?
