I just got off the phone with one of our HR rep's and she told me that covered procedures are actually negotiated and decided by the employer, who purchases the coverage. She took my (supposedly anonymous) employee feedback stating that I feel ADR should be covered and is probably a better option for me than fusion from the employer's stand point by giving me a faster recovery and better long term prognosis than fusion.
. Maybe if they get a few similar suggestions, they will look into ADR and begin to cover it more. It gives me hope that I can get my employer to push the insurance company to cover ADR
