i called AETNA. the skin biopsy at Johns Hopkins is covered, so is the doctor who does it. i just need a referral from my PCP, in addition to the 'script written by my neurologist.

the carpal tunnel splints will be covered, as well.

and my foot orthotics are covered on a case-by-case basis. the ortho surgeon just has to call and say, "YES, these are a medical necessity." and POOF! they'll be covered.

:D

now, i hope this all works out. i was really dreading scrimping for the foot plates.

Oh, honey, I hate all things medical-insurance related! That includes most allopathic practitioners and institutions...not the mention the hoops they want you to jump through like a good little trained poodle in a clown suit. Grrrr.
So don't worry krassie...if I ever become a homeopath or a naturopath or a shamanic healer I will cure you for the price of some ass-kicking cooking :) No referrals or bullshit!

*sigh*

So far, I have used herbs to keep alot of my ailments in check...and get my kids to sleep well!
