Does anyone know of an insurance company that will cover Stelara?

I am having a hard time finding an insurance provider that will cover Stelara. Any suggestions? I’m experiencing a bad flare and need to restart injections but my insurance won’t cover the shot saying that it’s cosmetic. (Obviously they’ve never experienced how miserable it is). Thanks!

I live in Texas and have United Health Care. It covers Stelera. I have had two shots so far. I wish someone would tell me it has helped. I sure can't tell I'm taking anything.
It is so miserable.
Insurance companies amaze me. Mine would not cover Otezla, but cover the most expensive Stelera. Makes no sense.
