Maria, Dr. Yue did in fact actually write in a letter to Cigna that he referred me to Dr. B. I don't know whether this actually helped but I am sure it did not hurt with my appeal.
I just heard Thursday Cigna is giving in and paying for my fusion portion of the bill which is everything but the two prodisc's. Is this a possiblity for you to handle if they would? Just a thought.
How many doctors in the United States have done this type of three level surgery? Can you use the basis of experience in this with workmans comp?
