Hello! I am 23 and have MS. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance through my workplace. Does anyone know how to get your insurance to cover extras like a hot tub? I spend a few hours a day in my bathtub constantly filling it with warm water for the pains in my legs. I know heat bothers a lot of people with MS but mine is much better when its warmer as opposed to the cold winter months. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks

Multiple Sclerosis Insurance Coverage for Extras

I would think that you would need to prove that it is medically nessecery. But my mother has MS to so I will check on that for you.

Ok, I asked around and you would need to get a perscription for the "extras" however I doubt that a doctor would write one for a hottub. But it also depends on your own personal insurance plan. check with them and see what they will cover. btw are you still walking? just asking because mom has had it for 25 years and she is now in a wheelchair.
