Impt detail for pts, families, docs, NP's, nurses, pharmacists that's mentioned in the article: OptumRx covers fluticasone for pts <5 and will approve all requests by prescribers if the patient needs to use a spacer 🙏
Will Express Scripts by Evernorth & CVSCaremark do the same? CVS Health

While I am so grateful to MassHealth for expanding coverage of fluticasone HFA for kids <12 b/c of the Asmanex #shortage , it kills me to reward the companies that caused the current #asthma inhaler crisis with even more business.
