Is stem cell therapy for Multiple Sclerosis covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by jurisdiction, indication, centre and policy, particularly for AHSCT. Obtain a written decision for the exact procedure or trial and preserve coverage for established disease-modifying care and complications.
The cost picture for Multiple Sclerosis
Do not compare a commercial infusion quote with AHSCT or disease-modifying therapy as if they were the same intervention. Itemise conditioning, hospital care, product, monitoring, infection prevention, travel, follow-up and complication responsibility, and obtain an independent MS specialist's review.
