Thanks for starting this thread Cheryl. I doubt my insurance will cover any of my surgery but, I'm sure I'll try anyway. I sure hope you are successful!
Colorado Babe said that the trick is to appeal immediately after they reject you. Not sure why the timing is so important. Perhaps she will add her two cents when she reads your thread. She just kept calling and pushing her cause.
