Guest guest Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Kia, Thanks. We used this article in our last appeal, but in interest of saving paper we used as many online references as possible. Since the link no longer works, at least we now have a hard copy to send in with our next appeal. Great work! Gail, Sam and Sara's mom, DOC grads, still appealing... new in Files section I had recently posted asking if anyone knew where I could find the article"Management of Plagiocephaly and Torticollis." I also sent a message to theCedar Sinai site's webmaster, and I got a response today. The article issupportive of helmet therapy (quoting excellent results), and talks aboutpossible permanent distortion of the head/face and ocular disturbances. Itis referenced in a sample appeal letter under Insurance Help, and I thoughtothers might find it a useful resource (I was not able to find it on theweb, and the link cited in the references section of the appeal letter wasno longer accurate). If I put it in the wrong place, I hope one of themoderators will move it for me (it's directly under Files)?Here's a quote from the article:For those children with moderate to severe deformation, if no interventionis made, there may be permanentdistortion of the head. In addition, this may lead to more prominent facialasymmetry which may ultimatelylead to ocular disturbances.Also, I added my letter to pediatrician's (asking that they shareinformation about plagio prevention, repositioning, and helmet therapy)under Files/Letters in case other parents might find it useful in thefuture.Now if only I could add my appeal letter as a successful one to theinsurance help section (I just sent it out last Friday, so keep your fingerscrossed for me).KiaFor more plagio info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
