The National Psoriasis Foundation works to educate insurance companies about the seriousness of psoriasis and improve access to treatments for patients. As part of this work, the Foundation researches health plan policies and has compiled this list of policies that are available online.
Many medical professionals advocate for their patients and address issues regarding health insurance claims. This list, which also includes the names of policy decision makers when available, is provided to assist you in your efforts.
If you are aware of a relevant policy link that is not listed below, please e-mail advocacy@psoriasis.org.
This list includes major health plans' policies available online. The list is not intended to be comprehensive. Many health plans do not post policies on their Web sites.
