Insurance Coverage

How do I get insurance coverage?
mBIOTA Elemental™ is classified under HCPC code A9270, and although elemental diets aren’t typically covered, some patients have successfully obtainied reimbursement by submitting an appeal with their medical history - especially when prior treatments have failed. To pursue insurance reimbursement:
-
Verify coverage: Contact your insurer to see how to apply your benefits to an enteral nutrition product.
-
Document past treatments: Compile your history of failed therapies and diagnostic findings.
-
Obtain provider support: Ask your healthcare provider to supply a Letter of Medical Necessity referencing the HCPC code and your documented history.
-
Submit your claim: It's often easiest to pay out of pocket first, then follow up with your insurance for reimbursement using your documentation.
Success varies by plan, but many of our customers have seen positive results. Please note: coverage depends on your specific insurer, state regulations, and individual health profile.
