After a bit of digging, I uncovered something.

Some insurance companies will pay for psychiatric care for addiction, as well as the script. I'm going to call the hotline during business hours (they have one for substance abuse) and try and get some information.

Would it really kill the doctor to inform the patient of their choices?
They know their options, just would prefer to protect the business I suppose.

This isn't so much about AS, if he wants to follow through bad enough, he'll have the resources (barely).

Its more about many in need of an FDA approved treatment, and private doctor greed.

I guess it hit a nerve in me
