Just starting out on this journey. My husband is a candidate for surgery, so I called BCBS and read them the CPT codes the surgeon gave us. They told us it is not covered. They considered it "experimental". What? The FDA approved it, right? Makes no sense to me. Really frustrated right now....don't know how we are going to get this surgery done, except to pay out of pocket. Incidentally, I happen to work for BCBS so it's a rather sticky situation for me to be in.....
