Pdoc /Insurance Fight about Sleep meds

Posted by susan C on August 10, 2001, at 18:27:54

Ok, I am on Ambien for sleep, tried Sonata. pdoc said, they are best to try. Sonata didn't work long enough. I take it every night. I asked him about if there are any long time problems, no says he. It is so nice to be able to sleep all night. I apply for maintainence coverage at insurance, they have a 'independent consulting medical doctor' Who says, NO to Ambien, says there are other sleeping meds I can use. Now, I am curious to see the Battle of the Doctor vs the Insurance Co. This sounds like the Insurance doc telling my doc what to prescribe....Two questions:
1: what other sleep meds are equivalent to Ambien
2: anybody out there had a similar experience with doc/ins co.? what happened?
