Re: GREAT NEW CASE FOR COVERAGE

[Guest guest]

Ian,

This is fantastic news! Thank you for articulating a good argument

for encouraging insurance coverage. Do you know if there is some

way we can link to somewhere online showing that the appellate

division upheld this case?

Thank you so much for posting this legal case update.

Good news, Ian. I'd like to see a copy of that decision when you get

it. See my post on the NJ bill to be introduced soon, and that Oxford

HP paid for BOTH DOC bands today! We are all elated, and thanks for

your help!

--- > Hi,

There is no place online to go but I am getting a copy of the

decision. It is 30 pages and I may need some help getting it posted

on the site. I will let you know as soon as it comes in.
