I got a letter today from my insurance company explaining the denial of my medication. They said I should try over the counter Omeprazole first. The OTC is 20mg I was prescriped 40mg. The letter went on to say I could pay for the medication myself. I feel the insurance company just doesn't want to pay for it period (they won't pay for OTC meds and if I had been approved for the prescription it would have been $0 cost to me). For the amount I pay for my premiums they should be ashamed.


Contact your Dr. and get an okay to double the OTC version. @Jordan2
