Re: Re: Need of a DR

[Guest guest]

Tina there are a few I personally know of in NJ but I dont think any take

insurance...but most insurance will reimburse...but a few are costly--that is

over what companies call " reasonable and expected " ...not that this says much:

insurance companies seem to feel that paying a reputable neurologist $95 for a

full evaluation is fair so when they see a few hundred dollars for an hour visit

at an LLMD they simply disallow it!!

if you still need names of Drs in NJ email me...pros and cons with many--we try

to NOT mention names on any info boards

[ ] Re: Need of a DR

Hi Tina,

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but my daughter sees

Dr. Horowitz, with miraculous results. He will take lyme aid for kids.

It will cover up to $1000.00. You can get information on it through

lymediseaseassociation.org . Fallon, who we also see in Dr.

Horowitz's office is familiar with lyme aid for kids because I used it

for my daughter. Also, if you mention to them that you are having to

pay out of pocket and it is difficult, they will work with you. They

have with me. It is still very expensive, because she's on the limited

Cowden Protocol, but as my daughter went from 3 ER visits a week to

none for the last 3 months, it has been worth every penny. I'm a single

Mom on disability, so believe me, I understand the financial strain.

The other possibility is to get you daughter on disability. I couldn't

find one Lyme doctor who would take my daughter's insurance either, but

many take Medicare. I don't remember how long it takes a child to get

it, but it may also give you some money to help deal with the bills.

Good luck to you! Annie
