Re: any advice for BCBS/Oklahoma? new at this.

[Guest guest]

Hi Shana,

Welcome to the group! Your daughter will be in good hands at CT in

Dallas from what I have been told. I cannot help you with your

insurance woes since my insurance plopped down 80% without a

problem, but I would advise you to start the process as soon as

possible. Your daughter is at a great age to get correction and to

get it quickly.

Good luck in your decisions!

Shana,

Welcome to the group! You're in great hands with the Dallas CT. Have

you asked the insurance lady at CT what you should do next? She'll

most likely have the answer for you. Your baby is at a great age to

receive great correction. Please let us know when you have a casting

date.

Hi Shana, welcome to the group! If you don't need a precert, I

guess the question you need to ask yourself is if you are going to

get a band even if they deny you. If you are willing to pay out of

pocket if necessary you might as well get it ASAP. We also had BCBS

and didn't need a precert, so we paid monthly on our credit card

until it was resolved.
