Insurance - Yuck

Yes, you should be hearing the results of our visit to the movement disorder neurologist at Mayo today.

But you will not here anything about new tests, or anything of that nature. Dennis' insurance decided that they would not cover the visit. They decided that he does not need to go out of network, since there are in-network doctors that are specialists, too.

I guess they don't know me very well. I will not give up without a fight.

So, I took the two days off, spent time on the phone and writing emails. Dennis made an emergency appointment with his neurologist here for tomorrow. We are also working through the research part of Mayo to help us out.

In the meantime, it is off to Rochester next Monday and Tuesday for that long put off radio active test. At least we will have a final decision on whether Dennis has Shy-Drager or not.

Until Later
Ann and Dennis
