When the doctors introduced the concept of the continuous glucose monitor to my wife and I, we were thrilled with the idea. The more information we can get about our young daughters blood sugar the better we feel we can manage it. Over the past several months, the doctors have been pushing it more as well. We bought into the idea when we first heard about it, we got a letter from the doctors in pediatric endocrine and we sent the request into our insurance company.They refuse to process the request.
It appears that if they don't process the request, we can never appeal it, and they don't have to concern themselves with it anymore. It's been several months since our attempt to get this new treatment for our daughter, and no one seems to have any answers for what our next step should be.
Does anyone have any advice as to what direction I should take this fight? I'm fed up with being given the run around and blank stares from everyone. What buttons do I have to push, who should I be spamming with daily letters? Who do I have to harass?
