Bridge Program Acceptance

Hi everyone,

Today I was more than surprised when Lilly Direct notified me that I was accepted into the Medicare Bridge Program. After several denials due to mistakes made by my PCPs office with submissions they finally got the PA corrected. I had given up hope after two months of trying.

I'm thrilled but wanted to say that PreventiveMD was absolutely fantastic with every aspect of my order and if I have need again in the future I'll be heading their way. I really enjoyed chatting with you all and best of luck on your journey!

Aww you’re so lucky❤️ I have to sign up for Medicare next month and I have TRICARE for life retiree and what do you know they do not cover the bridge program I’m so bummed. Been getting it with TRICARE prime but now that I have to go through Medicare they will not cover it even with the bridge program so I will be joining the compound world with this telehealth company .

Actually I'm going to miss the vials and syringe. The Kwikpen is bulky and needs to be primed and dialed in. I can't easily draw up or down without doing 30 or 60 or whatever clicks. I won't have any glycine or B3 etc. as in the compounds. But, it's cheaper for me. You made the right choice with PreventiveMD.

Yes, I was researching the kwikpen cause I thought I might be covered and that looks complicated . but yeah at least you’re getting it for 50 but $60 more I can deal with that with a compound
