Is there any way to get a prescription for a adult diapers?
I have total bladder and bowel incontenence due to a minor spinal injury and wear adult diapers. Recently, I've been running short on money, and I couldn't possibly due without diapers. If I had a Prescription for the diapers, they would be covered in full. If I explain my situation to my doctor, will he prescribe me adult diapers?

It's going to take more than a doctor's note to get the insurance company to pay for this one. It will require a full blown report and maybe even a visit to an independent medical examiner of the insurance company's choosing before this will happen. I have had prescriptions refused because they can be purchased without one even though they are kept behind the counter and are dispensed at the pharmacists discretion.

He can prescribe them, but if they're available over the counter, you will be directed to purchase them over the counter. Most insurances don't cover over the counter medications, even when they're prescribed.

call your doctor's office and speak with the nurse. it is easy to obtain a prescription if your medical records show a documented need.

no, you are able to purchase the guy leak protection on-line even if it isn't accessible at a branch or drug save on your section. attempt searching up relies upon undergarments or man or woman leak protection.
