Has anyone used Insure Nutrition to get Vitamins and supplements covered by insurance?

If that is the one that advertises on this site (to get Protein Shakes covered by insurance), many people have expressed negative comments about that company.

What negative comments? I'm personally aware of hundreds of our members they've assisted thus far who are extremely happy with their service and offering.

I contacted them. They initially told me I was approved and to expect something in the mail. Weeks went by and nothing ever came. Then they called and told me that my insurance would cover it but it would be applied toward my out of pocket expenses (I have a PPO) and that I would need to meet a $500 out of pocket deductible before they would cover anything. So I said no thanks, im managing just fine purchasing my own Protein and getting Vitamins from my surgeon.

They don't work well with all insurances. You need to be lucky :D MANY members have been very lucky. It definitely can't hurt to try. They never ask for payment if your insurance covers.

I just got a call last week saying that my insurance will cover and they are prepared to send everything to me as soon as the signed prescription goes back from my doctor's office.

I will be very happy if it all works out. Hoping I get lucky!

Were you required to pay anything? How many months supply did you receive and what exactly did you receive?

It's not :D What were you approved for?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
