Re: Insurance Frustrations

Hi Tracy, sorry you have to deal with this. Honestly having to fight with insuranc companies over denied needed care makes my blood boil. All insurance companiies have medical directors for different medical conditions. Ask .. no demand to talk to the oncology head for your area and plead your case.
As a subscriber you have the right to appeal directly to that person.
good luck!
