ADR Insurance Update
Single level ADR was denied by both Cigna and Blue Cross Blue Shield due to the procedure being considered "investigational". The total cost to pay out of pocket was quoted at approximately $48,000 for C6/C7 disk replacement, which I can not afford to pay. I am having constant headaches and numbsness of my scalp in addition to stabbing shoulder pain in my shoulder and numbness in my fingers. I can not tolerate a lengthy appeal, and will take the best alternative that insurance will pay for.
