INSURANCE WILL PAY for hypoallergenic formula!!
Insurance companies may cover the cost of hypoallergenic formula if it is deemed medically necessary, either by reimbursing you what you've spent on it, or if you get it as a prescription through your pediatrician. Many doctors don't know this, so they don't know to give a prescription for the formula. Call your insurance company today!
Hypoallergenic formula was necessary for our daughter's acid reflux. For my insurance to cover it, my doctor had to provide 1) a signed letter stating the condition it's needed for, 2) a copy of the diagnosis in the baby's chart, and 3) a copy of the prescription.
