Hi All,
My insurance has finally approved my appeal for a 1 level cervical ProDisc! After sending in an 88 page long appeal, having that looked at by two medical directors and an outside review board, they've finally decided that the surgery is medically necessary, and there is "some" data to suggest cervical ADR is effective 
HUGE thanks to the Insurance Warrior, Laurie Todd. Between her amazing book and all of the emails she answered for me immediately, she was an incredible help and a large part of my success.
If anyone needs help with approval for a single level cervical ADR, feel free to send me a message. I'd be more than happy to help.
