I need legal advise/help with breast surgery denial PLEASE HELP? |
I am in Indianapolis, IN and I had a bilateral lumpectomy on my breasts in August of '04. One of the lumps that was removed from my right breast had a papilloma on it that was only TWO mutations away from cancer. How this all started was I had blood coming out of my right nipple. They have denied it four times now. I just sent an email to my insurance telling them I was sick of playing their game and I had been more than patient concerning this matter, especially with what is at stake for me. Its like they are no even reading my notes. The kicker is my insurance is through who I work for which is a HOSPITAL!!!!!! You can always sue them later. First take care of yourself. Have you considered your alternatives? For example patient advocacy could help you significantly reduce your cost of breast surgery. Best program I know of for patient advocacy is MySimpleCard. Heather, first, do not worry ahead for your job - you will attract what you are scarred for. Better talk to your boss and ask for help. Explain the situation and ask for an advise. Say that is not your fault that you are having this medical problem, but that you want to save your breasts - they will not regrow again just because of your insurance co. Do not tell your boss you are seeking a legal advise, ask for her or his help. |
