What to ask your insurer or supplier

  2. Do I need prior authorization, a doctor's visit or a written order first?
  3. Will I rent it or buy it? For how long?
  4. Which suppliers are in my plan's network?
  5. What will I pay (deductible, coinsurance or copay)? How many can I get, and how often can it be replaced?
