Has anyone else had issues getting their insurance to cover Humira? I have taken several other medications in the past that just didn't keep the flares under control, and the doctor wants to bypass the Remicade (I have a stricture) and start me on Humira. The nurse called today and said she had to fax an authorization form to Cigna, and she said that there may be a problem with them covering it because I haven't tried Remicade first.
Now, I'm all worried that it won't be covered. I hate all of this red tape. This whole process has already taken a month, and I was getting excited that I'd be starting the Humira soon, but now I'm discouraged.
