So far in the whacky world of BCBS I have received (2) different reasons for denial. Via phone days before I received the official denial in mail I was told that it was all about the 'emergency' vs 'planned' thing. In the mail they said ADR was not appropriate for 'ongoing low back pain' & lack of peer reviewed evidence concerning ADR.

Excuse me I had severe DDD, but because they insisted that I only send them documents pertaining to the surgery they did not see testimony by 3 spine docs concerning my severe DDD. This is crazy

Now the icing on the cake. They have so far sent me 2 checks. One for $140 the P.T. cost & one for $600 the cost of the ambulance, the last one ($600) came days after the denial letter. all together now boys 1-2-3 puke
