Insurance sucks!


Wow, I haven't been on this blogsite in a long time. Well, here's what's new. I have been trying to get my son seen by an HTC for the past couple of months. The HTC in nyc doesn't accept his insurance. I called his insurance and they dont even have an HTC within their network. They told me that my current hematologist would have to call their clinical department and answer a bunch of questions and convince them that it's necessary. I don't see that happening at all. I have been pushing my hematologist to call and consult with the HTC for months.Just for a second opiion, it can't hurt. My son has an inhibitor and I really feel it needs to be under control. He is just getting over his third bleed in the last 3 1/2 months. It's too much. This poor kid. I feel so horrible for him. But like always, he's such a strong little man. Nothing ever breaks his spirit. I'm going to do all I can to get this insurance problem dealt with and hope for the best.
