We are always looking for ways to improve access to care, and that’s why we’ve recently created an Insurance Coverage Reporting Form.
The information you provide will assist us in better understanding the overall insurance coverage landscape for lymphedema treatment supplies and services. Responses will be kept confidential and results will only be shared in aggregate, to assist lymphedema patients in choosing insurance policies that provide the best coverage.
This new form is the counterpart to our Denial or Insufficient Coverage Reporting Form.
Together, these two forms will help us to identify the best and worst policies for lymphedema coverage, with the goal of being able to share this information with the lymphedema community during the yearly open enrollment period.
Both forms are accessible under the Take Action tab on our website, and will be open year-round.
The best time to complete either form is right after you’ve had an insurance claim for a lymphedema service or supply, so you can tell us exactly what was or wasn’t covered. Both forms also allow for multiple submissions, in case you need to report new or additional information later in the year.
If you haven’t already, please consider supporting our 15th Anniversary Fundraising Campaign.
Every dollar you contribute fuels our mission to close coverage gaps, advocate for fair policies, and empower patients. If you prefer to donate by check, you can do so by mailing your gift to: Lymphedema Advocacy Group, PO Box 1682, Carrboro, NC 27510.
Thank you for your advocacy!
