Guest guest Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 Hello Amy, Other then the Shriner's I have found a few programs that was and are willing to help with Tyler's healthcare. One of them is First Steps. I have found that most states have the program. You can find alot of information searching the net. That is where I found First Steps and a program they have here in Indiana for children with disabilities that helps with healthcare bills relating to his feet. I figure most states probably have similar programs like that as well. If you would like me to help you search just let me know. Send me an email here or at littlebrat2025@....

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Amy, I was feeling the same way about the Copay and have the same, $30, it was really going to add up. After our first casting visit they did not charge us the office visit, so we did not have to pay the copay. They just billed the insurance for the casting. Maybe your doctor has the same policy.
