so what would insurance cover????
sorry if this has been asked, but I did a search and had trouble finding answers.
Of those of you that have had ADR and the insurance didn't pay for it... What will the insurance now covere? Will they cover complications or if you need removal and fusion now? Also, if you are involved in a trial, who covers any complications? I'm trying to see if I might be able to get involved in a clinical trial.

I can only answer your first question: HealthNet covered nothing related to the surgery. They did pay for follow-up visits with the surgeon and subsequent X-rays.
