Here is another way LegalShield can help you:


"My wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and had been going through many treatments as we worked with an oncologist.


At one point he said her body couldn't take more chemo, so we needed to get a particular chemo patch.


She would need about a dozen of these patches, then he'd let us know if she needed more after that.


Of course, we were going to do whatever it took. The doctor wrote the prescription and sent it in.


I went to the pharmacy to pick it up and the pharmacist was devastated as she told me the patches were $13,000.00 apiece!


I was not prepared to cover that amount on the spot, so I told the pharmacist I'd come back after I figured some things out.


We'd already worked with our LegalShield Provider Firm here in Texas through much of my wife's treatment so, I thought I'd call them to see if there was anything that could be done.


The lawyers listened as I shared the details and they had me send in our health insurance papers for review.


I then went on with stuff I had to do. I was able to move money around so I was prepared to pay the $13,000.00 or more to get her started on the patch she needed.


The next day, I walked back into the same pharmacy and the same pharmacist got a bewildered look on her face when she saw me.


As I approached she said 'I don't know who you are or what you did, but your insurance company called us and approved this prescription ... all you owe is $20.00 for the copay.'


Turns out, my law firm called my insurance company.


These members are "LegalShield for life!"
