I agree that every 3 months may be overkill, and that's probably why your insurance co is balking. I had a partial mast and am high risk, and I go to a top breast specialist in LA. My followup is to see him every six months -- alternating mammo and MRI. If you do self exams, too, that should be enough. I've had no problem with insurance coverage (and actually my surgeon once added in an extra mammo of the cancer breast -- but I don't go more often than every 6 mos.)
