OT topic a bit but Had dental surgery month ago-insurance would not cover sedation! I had my orthopedic Dr write letter stating I do not handle procedures well with out sedation. (he's done 4 surgeries on me since 2006)

shortened version..I got almost $500 back out of $1,000 so doing Happy Dance..

    Wow
    That's a first. The insurance company making an exception and covering something they normally don't. I work in mental health and the insurance companies have no mercy to give to those who have severe and persistent mental illness. I think it is inhumane to do this to those known to have a mental illness that is so debilitating they cannot even work. I guess I will thank God for your instance. Who says God doesn't work miracles?

    The dentist office also sent it in to my Medical to see if they will reimburse %! NEVER hurts to try.
