Ugggghhh.
The correct answer to this question is:
"Most likely, a copay will be charged for each chemo and/or radiation treatment. It will all depend on the procedure/diagnosis codes used at the time of treatment. I would assume a copay, but be happily surprised if it is covered at 100%. And I truly hope you never have to find out that answer."
AKA...who knows? Its going to come down to the codes like it always does and you can't speculate on those.
The reason for my question... I have spoken to many men who have had prostrate cancer treatment that has included as many as 60+ visits for treatment. Doing the math, that's an additional potential out of packet of $1200... bringing me to my next point. Recently on a thread there was the discussion of additional coverage through a cancer plan... and here is an example of why that type of coverage is important even in situation when medicare is involved.
Thank you for your contribution to this thread. Gives a great deal of clarity
