Emgality

Hudson, NC

Last year I had BCBS insurance, they denied my Emgality even after appealing 5 times. Switched to Aetna the first of the year and they covered it without have to do a prior authorization. It really helps reduce my migraines to about 1 a week. I know this wasn’t really a question but thought others might like to know. 😊
