Aetena’s current criteria for pre-certification of treatment with IVIg or SCIg can be found here:

Your Neurologist must show you have either GBS or CIDP to be pre-certified. Use of the proper ICD-10 coding can help get your prescription approved as medically necessary.

A list of the IVIg brands that are covered are here:

Good luck.
