I just switched to Nutrishare about a year ago and it's been one of the best things I've done since I've been on TPN. I switched from a local home care company. I'd highly recommend Nutrishare. I think they can work with pretty much any insurance company. I'm going to have to start getting my own insurance in the next couple of years (currently on my dad's COBRA plan) and they told him that even if I couldn't find insurance right away, they wouldn't stop supplying me and they would find a way to make everything work. So yes, try Nutrishare out. Hope this helps!

I also have Unitedhealthcare PPO but not Medicaid. I used Baycare & Apria for GI supplies & the formulas through CVS. For cath & some other supplies, I use MTG (medical supplies of Georgia - Randy Golden) who found a local rep in my area. Unfortunately, I now get all my needs met through Hospice.

Ck online at UHC.com to see what providers your plan is contracted with. Sometimes I don't like a supplier, but if they serve a purpose, it's "just business" and dont get too emotionally attached.

well lets try this again, i replyed yesterday but its not here... anyway i use optioncare. i have used them for about 5+ years for my TPN. i get the rest of my stuff, tubing , neddles etc.. from the VA. but the TPN from optioncare has never been wrong or not delivered on the right day. i have even had it shipped to many places across the country while traveling with never a problem . they are owned by Walgreens now. i believe they are nation wide. my TPN is delivered about 50 miles to my home.
