BCBS Illinois

I have received notification from BCBSIL that ADR is still considered experimental, since no long term data is available to prove that is is BETTER than fusion. BCBSIL will NOT cover any costs associated with ADR procedure.

Default Approval Letter, and/or Appeal Letters - BCBS - CA
Does anyone have copies of Approval letters from Anthm/BCBS of California, for Cervical ADR?

I would very much like to have some names and examples of approvals for my appeal.

If you have an Appeal letter that worked with Anthm/BCBS of Californis, I would be interested in that as well.

Feel free to email to: brianw6212@gmail.com

Default Anthem BCBS hell(p)
I would like to join forces with anyone who has experience with Anthem BCBS or any other BCBS for that matter.

I'm in need of any successful coverages, appeals, court cases, etc. for lumbar ADR.
