Over the past few weeks i have noticed that some medicare part D stopped paying for most of the test strips at CVS . When we process the claim, we get a rejection stating that insurance will only pay for True test, and true track. Today i received a call from a part D (humana) asking me to process a test strip claim for patient. ( Patient had called telling them about the rejection, which they did not see). I ran the claim, and still they did not see anything at all. So i had to call cvs help desk, who told me that it is cvs that rejected the claim because humana does not reimburse them at all or they are losing money, so they are forcing patient to get different brand. They did give me an override code for one time only.
Is this legal?
