Did anyone have trouble getting United Healthcare to pay for the DOC Band?

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone! I am so happy I found this group! My son, Tanner, got

his DOC Band off in November, and our insurance claim has been turned

down by United Healthcare, as I heard it probably would. I am working

on an appeal and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me???

He was categorized as " severe " , and his plagio was on the right rear

portion. I saw a woman at Babies R Us with twins (one had plagio) and

she said she heard it was more of a medical condition when the plagio

is on the side of back fo the head as opposed to the center of the back

of the head. Has anyone heard that either?

Any insurance information anyone can help me with would be greatly

appreciated! Thanks, and I'm looking forward to chatting!
