Does SelectHealth Cover Allergy Immunotherapy?

SelectHealth generally covers allergy immunotherapy, but coverage can vary based on individual plan details and medical necessity. Check your plan's specifics for conditions and possible co-pays.

To have allergy immunotherapy covered by SelectHealth, patients must first obtain a referral from their primary care physician to an allergist. Documentation of a medical history that supports the necessity for immunotherapy such as allergy test results (skin or blood tests) indicating definitive allergen sensitivities is required. A detailed treatment plan from the allergist, including the duration and dose of the immunotherapy, should be submitted.

Coverage may be subject to the plan's deductible, copayment, and coinsurance. Pre-authorization may be necessary for specific treatment protocols. Maintenance treatments might be limited to a certain number of years, and over-the-counter alternatives may not be covered.

Note: The coverage details may vary by policy and are subject to change, confirm the latest terms directly with SelectHealth.

Covered

SelectHealth typically covers a variety of treatments and situations as part of its health coverage plans. Coverage often includes preventive care services, emergency and hospital care, prescriptions, and mental health services. Additionally, SelectHealth may provide coverage for specialty services like physical therapy, chiropractic care, and allergy testing and treatment, including allergy immunotherapy. Maternity and newborn care, along with pediatric services, are also commonly covered. Members often have access to a network of doctors and healthcare facilities. Remember, the extent of coverage for these treatments and situations can vary by plan and individual circumstances, so members should review their specific policy details or contact SelectHealth directly for coverage clarification.

Uncovered

SelectHealth insurance may not cover treatments deemed as experimental or investigational, those related to cosmetic procedures, weight control services, non-prescription drugs and treatments, and services for conditions not deemed medically necessary. Coverage for dental care, except as a result of injury, is typically excluded, as well as routine foot care unless associated with underlying conditions. Additionally, educational services, government-provided services, and personal comfort items are often not covered. It's important to review individual policy details for specific exclusions.
