Been thinking about you       08/27/05 08:38 AM Edit Reply Quote ecmmbm Reged: 02/23/03 Posts: 1622 Loc: North Carolina I've had to fight insurance battles lately like crazy. Here's what I've learned. Complaints in writing seem to mean more. Have your hubby write it instead of you (awful but true, they think we women whine about ourselves, and I'm guessing covereage is under him anyway?) List out every single thing you've already tried on your own to improve your situaion. List out what your doctor fears will happen if you do not get this treatment. Explain in very clear terms what cost that will mean for them (in-patient care if you were to become truly anorexic or suicidal). I might even touch on liability from their part should you ever harm yourself (God forbid, shudder at the thought). Tell them they can expect to hear from your doctor again, and a little TRICK that is nice, copy in attornies!!!! Put the cc: to "so and so attorney" on the letter to the insurance company, the WILL see it there. Don't even send it to an attorney if you dont' have one but it's just a little way of saying, "We're not dropping this!!!" HTH in some way, hon. If it doesn't work out will just pray there are other ways for you to get help you need. -------------------- Take care, Michelle ...the greatest of these is LOVE.
