What documentation is required for my insurance to cover my catheters?

Insurance requirements can vary depending on your provider and plan. While most insurance companies, including Medicare, require a valid prescription for catheter supplies, some plans may need additional documentation before coverage is approved.

Common documentation that may be required includes:

• A valid prescription for the size of the catheter, the type recommended (in some cases), and the frequency of use
• Doctor’s visit notes detailing your diagnosis or cathing needs
• In certain cases, a Certificate of Medical Necessity (CMN) or prior authorization may be required
