Elliot's bilateral implant finally approved!
Jul 06, 2006 @ 08:41 AM
We finally won our fight with our insurance company!
We are in an HMO under Blue Cross/Blue Shield of
Georgia and have been fighting to get approval for a
second implant for Elliot for over a year. We were
notified today that the Georgia state insurance
commission overturned BC/BS. We had lot's of help
from the Let Them Hear Foundation advocacy program.
The free legal support LTH provided was instrumental
in our getting this approved. Elliot's surgery is
scheduled for August 12-- our 17th wedding
anniversary!
