I'm on my last round appeal with Aetna for the mobi-c. I need a two level. Pro disc is made by Synthes, I would call them. I called LDR, the company that makes mobi-c. They put my surgeon in touch with MCRA to help with my case. They are getting a lot of positive outcomes for patients. I believe there are other companies out there as well that are helpful. Sometimes they want to go through your surgeon though, so if your Dr. Is willing, he could contact them as well.
Hope this helps!
