A member asked:

Hep c for over 30 years and was denied harvoni because of f2 on metavir test i need tx and am considering another country with generics. help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Try appealing: I know some patients have written their insurance companies over and over ad nauseam to the point that the insurance carrier will just approve it. These are new meds so generics are not available in other countries to my knowledge.
