Q: Tanning Bed Insurance Coverage...anybody Know??

asked by: charitycj on January 9th, 2006

I have a pretty severe case of psoriasis, all over my body. I'm interested in getting a uv bed (tanning bed) for my home and can't seem to find any information about whether my insurance agency will cover it. Anyone have any idea what i'll have to go through for this? I'm sure I need to get my specialist to write or call them, just curious if anyone has gone through this or knows anything about it.

Thanx :?:

I think a doctor would have to write out a perscription for the tanning bed, then your insurence would concider covering it! Its like old people getting there a/c paid by insurance!
