Re: [SPAM] [SPAM] Cost of CI' surgery

Why did United HealthCare refuse your coverage? I have Medica which is part of

UHC and was told by my employer they covr CI. Maybe it's the specific plan you

have?

I was just reading your blog, you are not that far away from me.

Did you know that CochlearAmericas offices are in Denver. you can

make an appt to go visit them and also meet some of their staff, ask

questions etc. As you are so close, you may want to visit them and

the Cochlear devices are a good choice esp as the reps are within

driving distance of your CI center if you have problems or need them

to help out with your mapping etc. I had the Cochlear Audiologist

come down to Colorado Springs a couple times to my mapping appts. Drop

me an email if you want. also where did you get the figure for the

cost for CI procedure of over $100,000? its usually between

$30-60,000 per ear
