    No bro...Oasis does NOT accept insurance. And there has been several threads asking about any success getting reimbursed and I have yet to see any body get their dough back. I've been following the HRT forum here pretty steady since March.
    hope this helps bro

    Oasis and Insurance

    I have been using Oasis for a couple years now, and If you have Blue Cross Blue Shield, or United then you are in luck. I have the first. After placing your orderl, Oasis will provide you will letter of medical necessity and all invoice information necessary to fill our your reimbursment form from you PPO Insurance provider. I recieve up to 80 percent of all HGH and Testosterone Therapy treatment back from reimbursment. they will give you all the info you need ot get free or close to free gear. The key is having a insurance provider that actually cares. The two I listed are very good. Nothing makes me feel better than paying One fourth of a 2500.00 order every six months. Also, Oasis is the only Clinic nation wide to offer credit lines. Watch out boys, Im charging my gear.....

    Thanks for the info guys!!!!
    I have Aetna, hope they would cover some of the cost.

    My doctor just scribed me Androgel , had to pay more than my normal copay
    because it is a namebrand instead of generic.

    Can someone explain why this jakoff would make this comment. Is this not a legal theropy? To many people in here are giving hints and suggestions that lead me to think that it is not legal. Sure I understand that this theropy can be used and abused. But is there such a thing as having a serious condition in which HRT can help?

    So if a person such as myself has bcbs and can charge with oasis, get reimbursed by bcbs and pay off most off the loan with oasis.... is this correct??

    You got to call and ask. Make sure you document or get in writing

    When I go to mine it says "Prior Authorization Required" means
    Doc will have to submit forms and you might have to appeal
    to upper level about meds. If you are talking about GH. It costs
    a lot of money and they will give you a tough time. If you are
    talking test and have drug coverage they usually will pay.

    Wish you the best. It's always best to go to their web site and
    see first. Then call. Lots of time is about how far yout Doc will
    fight. Remember they do business with the Insurance companies,
    most work for HMO's, they do what they are told. Not like the good
    ole days.
    In whole good advice. The advice to call and get it in writing is key if you are going to do hgh. Cigna requires pre-authorization that is almost impossible to get for hgh unless you are some type of midget.

    They used to pay no problem.

    and another thing...if someone had a true medical condition they would be seeking help from a doctor or be checking things out on a medical website. this is a steroid forum.

    I value the opinions of most here on this steroid website more than any doctor that i've run across so far and use the doctors as a middle man in my own little world i live in.

    i think the bro got a little put off when a serious question in the hrt forum got turned into a joke....maybe got a little harsh with the name calling but lavinco wasn't as pissed as you

    i think the question got answered and will help a lot

    you are right. i just get mad when a noob starts acting like an internet toughguy. lav is a good bro so i'll stick up for anyone who's been around. you can disagree with someone here without calling them a jackoff. plus i agree that doctors can be a pain in the a*s but they did go to med school and the opinions on this board are made by guys(self included) who are willing to take some chances and make some sacrifices to achieve a certain goal. sometimes not always the smartest decisions. alot of time i see people fishing for the answer they want to hear. a true medical condition should be dealt with by a doctor.

    1.) It was a misstake, my bad. I didn't realize it was a joke.
    2.) I'm not a newb. Althow my profile might indicate.
    3.) I'm sry my comment was so traumatizing for you.
    4.) I agree the Doc is the best way to go. Just wanted to learn as much as possible before any visits. In a fifteen to thirty min counsiltaion there are only so many questions one can ask or remember to ask a Doc.

    Lavinco I'm sry for the the comment. maybe I should have paid more attention.

    To kind of give you some feed back from what we have seen on insurance reimbursement is that Aetna is not very good at all and is very difficult to get reimbursed by. I know this because I attempted to assist a patient beyond the typical invoice and letter. We both got the run around for about 6 months without a sucessful turn out. Even got letters saying they would do it but to find out in the end the person made a mistake.

    BC/BS some do and some don't depends on the policy that you have and the requirements. Example BC/BS of Florida for the specific patient that tried their policy required stimulation tests to be completed before reimbursement would be granted for HGH. On the other hand one patient with BC/BS of Illinois recieved 80% reimbursement with only an invoice provided.

    United Healthcare used to reimburse but haven't had any recent situations to give you an example.

    If it is needed we will provide patients will invoice and a universal claim form to submit.

    Most will have an easier time getting reimbursed for testosterone therapy than they will with HGH. In the past Insurance companies were easier to get to reimburse for HGH but most are beginning to require stimulation tests and will not grant reimbursement soley with an IGF-1 test.

    We do now offer finance programs for individuals that are approved to cover the costs of their therapy. Minimum is $300 and can be financed up to 18 months no interest or 72 months at 9%. This program is not exclusive and can be used at many local doctors, dentists, plastic surgeons, etc in your area as well. Please call for more details. We can run an application over the phone and will have the results within minutes.

    Not nearly the same as insurance paying, but yes, gooooooood idea....would save some $$$$$$$$
    they'll need to see invoice for sure... i think my first purchase from oasis was with flex spending and they shortly were asking for receipt(s). It didn't automatically come with the shipment and my wife was thinking of switching jobs anyway (she carries insurance and flex card) so I didn't bother providing them with it. The balance was almost empty anyway so what could they have done

    Not sure if they all work this way, but my wife had one of those accounts and even if it happened to be empty, if the amount was within what she was scheduled to have put aside during the year they'd still pay. When she changed jobs that "negative" balance just went away. This was a few years ago, so they may hove gotten smarter in managing these funds....

    Yeh, my wife actually left her company b4 they had a chance to finish deducting the rest of her paychecks that pay for the flex card and came back a few months later and didn't have to pay

    I used to be a human resourse guy in a company on the Alabama/Georgia line. I dealt with Alabama BC/BS and Georgia BC/BS and they were operated as seperate entities. As a matter of fact, during this time BC/BS of Tennessee went bankrupt but this had no affect on Ala or GA. My point is that coverage with BC/BS varies state to state so be careful.
