Did any of you have your meal replacements paid for by your insurance company?  I thought they would pay for it if you have a dr's Rx but they laughed me off the phone on Friday when I called the insurance co to see if they did.  I've been given conflicting information before from my insurance co so I may call again this week and see if I get the same answer!!

I claimed mine on income tax.  but a word to the wise.  Keep very good records.  I did my income tax last year and submitted it electronically and now they are auditing me for the medical expense portion.  Now I am backpeddalling and having to get records and letters from Hospital, MSI, etc.  It's a pain in the butt.  so good record keeping is the key.
