We are our own best medical advocates.
Thanks to youtube coverage of medical conferences ,etc- we can listen in on the experts - trying best to understand their med-speak.
I'm on a PCa journey and need therapy for localized PCa, and my Medicare DISadvantage insurance program has denied my choices of therapy twice.
Ironic part of this is original medicare covered both therapies, but insurance used waffle words to deny.
A further issue is each denial is costing months of delay.
Obviously insurance is in it for the profit not the patients.
Several big insurance co admit to trying to shed certain customers to be more profitable, sad !
