I have a client in FL on Humana MAPD
He understands he has to pay for the prescription out of pocket
What he is having an issue with is getting prescription, He was told by his doctor, He has to go to a specific type of doctor called a Medicare Marijuana Doctor, However, the one he spoke with Said he need to pay office visit plus consultation fee and has to pay for visit every 4 to 6 weeks after
He called Humana and they told him they have none in the network in his area, However, they did not say it was not covered, Leavin him to believe it is covered
My question is, Is this just a noncovered service?
Or if covered can he request an out of network doctor be covered if they have none in the area available?
