Hmmm..I have BCBS and I haven't received any kind of letter, nor has there been any change in my co-pays. I do use the Freestyle Promise card, but also, one poster said BCBS won't cover Apidra? I haven't heard anything about that. Is it a state or regional BCBS plan thing?

BCBS is really a large network of different heathcare providers. I think someone once described it as like a heathcare franchise. There are some regulations they all have to follow but there are many rules that they can change or limit on their own. Just because one BCBS network makes a decision does not mean that decision applies to another BCBS network.

Haven't seen that yet - hope I don't - that really stinks! Thanks for the heads up - I will be on the lookout.

I received the same letter and I was able to solve by asking my Dr. for a prior authorization.
