IDSA antitrust lawsuit thrusts chronic Lyme disease into health care limelight
2018
Overview
A federal antitrust lawsuit was filed against The Infectious Diseases society of America, eight insurance companies and seven physicians who have reportedly denied coverage for the treatment of chronic Lyme disease. According to an article in Courthouse News, the 28 patients filing the lawsuit claim that the IDSA guidelines have prevented them from obtaining more than a month's worth of antibiotics. [...]these patients have always existed and their presenting categorical list of complaints has also been consistent over time: the fatigue, insomnia, and musculoskeletal pain often seen after an infectious disease and well documented after Lyme disease are joined by symptoms all-tofamiliar to pediatricians - headache, abdominal pain, altered bowel function with concomitant school absence, social isolation and family distress.
