Canada: denial, and what it actually costs here

Appeal Cold Box ×9

Been lurking in c/glp1eu for about 16 months and finally have something worth posting.

Short version: week 60, 15mg, and appeal is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 37 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.

What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 66.

Did you get step therapy or outright denial?

Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.

resubmission after denial requires new documentation

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

prior auth criteria are state-specific, external review differs

do not suggest misrepresenting a diagnosis, that is fraud

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

u/saskia_lokken1 point·4 months ago

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Yeah, the denial code matters, it tells you what to fight.

Crossposting this to c/cryptopay because the people who need it are not reading this community.

copay is separate from coverage

Which plan type? step therapy is different.

u/ines_krastevOP3 points·4 months ago

Denied for prior auth, resubmitted with step therapy documentation, approved on appeal. The criteria exist, you just have to meet them.

About c/insurancefights

The paperwork war. Prior-authorisation criteria, denial reason codes, step-therapy documentation, external review, employer carve-outs, and the appeal letter templates the community has iterated on for three years. Mostly US-shaped but the tactics generalise.

  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
