Harbor Compounding Pharmacy Advises About Coverage for Compounded Medications During Open Enrollment 2016

compounded medications

COSTA MESA, Calif., Oct. 12, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Many insurance plans are dropping coverage of compounded medications, but some insurance plans still do cover for these custom formulations. Harbor Compounding Pharmacy provides resources and referrals to patients to find insurance coverage for their compounded medications during open enrollment 2016.

Healthcare open enrollment is coming up from November 1, 2015 to January 31, 2016, and many patients on compounded medications are wondering if their current insurance, or any insurances at all, will cover for compounded medications. In the past, most insurance plans included coverage of compounded medications. However in the past few years, insurance coverage for compounded medications has been dwindling, but there is hope. There are some existing insurance plans that still cover for some compounded medications.

Harbor Compounding Pharmacy has helped many patients try to understand insurance coverage for their compounded medications. If patients are wondering if their plan covers for compounded medications, they must inquire if the plan covers for compounded medications made from "bulk ingredients." This means the insurance plan will cover for compounded medications that are made from pure ingredients, in other words made from scratch. Harbor Compounding Pharmacy also suggests patients call their insurance agents and further inquire if they have had experience signing up patients with compounded medications and have those compounded medications successfully covered by any insurance plan.

Harbor Compounding Pharmacy is currently working with select California insurance agents with experience finding coverage for compounded medications for their patients. If patients are on compounded medications and are in need of a referral to an insurance agent, the patient can contact the pharmacy or go to the pharmacy website to find out who is available to service them. Because insurance plans vary from state to state across the country, patients must work with insurance agents who are familiar with the insurance plans within their state. Harbor Compounding Pharmacy is continuing to look for partnerships with insurance agents experienced in finding coverage for compounded medications.

Overall, insurance coverage for compounded medications may be limited, but it is not impossible to find a plan that will cover for these custom compounded formulations. Open enrollment may seem far off, not ending until January 31, 2016, but doing the research to find the right insurance plan can be a lengthy process, thus patients should start inquiring as soon as possible. Harbor Compounding Pharmacy is open to helping current and new patients connect to the right resources and to the right people to make this process easier. If patients have questions regarding if their existing insurance plan covers for compounded medications at all, they should contact the pharmacy.

EB-5 program

COSTA MESA, Calif., Aug. 24, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- PDC Capital Group announced that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services has approved an I-526 petition filed by an investor in a new Caffe Primo restaurant in San Diego.

Emilio N. Francisco, PDC CEO, Announces Acquisition of EB-5 Regional Center

private equity firm

COSTA MESA, Calif., March 27, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Emilio N. Francisco, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of private equity firm PDC Capital Group (www.pdccapitalgroup.com), announced the acquisition of ZGlobal Southern California EB-5 Investment Regional Center (http://zglobalregionalcenter.com).

The EB-5 visa is a federal program launched in 1990 that allows foreign nationals to apply for permanent residency in the U.S. in exchange for investing $1 million in a U.S. business. Each investment is required to generate at least 10 jobs.

ZGlobal has been designated by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to provide investment opportunities to foreign investors interested in participating in the EB-5 Investor Visa Program and obtaining green cards.

One advantage to designation as a regional center is that a regional center can claim indirect job creation resulting from investment projects. The ability to claim the creation of indirect jobs allows the applicant to more easily meet the EB-5 program job creation requirements.

PDC Capital Group is a private equity firm that specializes in real estate development projects funded through EB-5 visa investments.

"We are very excited about our partnership with ZGlobal Regional Center," said Emilio N. Francisco, Chief Executive Officer of PDC Capital Group. "Working through the center will give us a broader platform to connect with investors interested in our EB-5 projects."
