What happened with your daughter and Medicare coverage?

after a very long wait, I just won my appeal before the administrative law judge and will hopefully be getting my checks and medicare information soon.

Did your duaghter's Medicare cover a 2 or 3 level ADR? or a hybrid ADR/fusion surgery? where did you have it done? which surgeon?

I'd also love to hear what plan your daughter elected...did she stay on the Original Medicare plan or one of the HMO/PPO privately administered Medicare approved plans?
