Just wanted to tell you (in case you didn't know) that you can start the banding process as soon as you are denied. If you wait for an approval you could be waiting a very long time. If you have the money or can get it (we took out a home loan and used a credit card - we're on our second band) you should get your baby banded asap and then the insurance co. can reimburse you when/if you are approved.Dawn 1st DOC band 3/04, 2nd 7/04....
