Please help. Husband recently diagnosed with MS and we’re about to both be unemployed.

I’ve looked at our state-specific health insurance options (via Connect for Health Colorado), and when I put in my husband’s MS medication (Ocrevus) it only provides one option that covers it (Rocky Mountain Health Plans). However, that provider has awful reviews mentioning that they don’t cover what they say they cover, and it also says they don’t cover his doctor we put a ton of effort into finding and really like.

Is there any chance someone can help us figure out if there are other marketplace/private insurance providers that would at least be likely to cover Ocrevus even if it has to be as an exception? The good news is the drug company will cover $20k for the drug and $1500 for the infusion if there’s an amount left over that insurance doesn’t cover, but the OOP expense is like $80,000 a year so we definitely need something that picks up at least 3/4 of that bill…ideally an HDHP, since folks on the MS forum suggest those since the copay assistance reimburses you for the max OOP you hit on the first infusion.
