Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hello all, I have an interesting project that I would like to start this weekend --- trying to get our insurance company to reimburse us for our DOC Bands! The situation is as follows: Our insurance carrier DOES cover bands when prescribed from a pediatrician. The catch is that they only cover up to 12 months of age. We returned home from China with our adopted son, Samson, in March. As he spent most of his life laying on his back in his crib, in an orphanage, he had a strikingly flat spot on the back of his head. As he was 14 months of age when we returned, and immediately were referred to Cranial Technologies here in Phoenix, the insurance claims people have refused any reimbursement for his first band. We had such amazing positive change from the first band, we did go forward with a second band just recently in hopes of even better results! We are now nearly $7,000 out of pocket, and I am not sure how to proceed with at least trying to get SOME degree of reimbursement. It’s a strange situation. We’ve paid premiums for years and years and never used our medical insurance for much of anything. I guess I always figured that if a time ever came when we WOULD need it, there would be no problems. This is something that he really needed for his growth and development, it was not just cosmetic. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks a million, & Samson Duval chrisduval@...
