Guest guest Posted June 14, 2000 Report Share Posted June 14, 2000 Hi all! I have been out of the loop for awhile and don't get to all my digests, but I was wondering if any of you knew about the new AAP policy that came out May 8, 2000. It actually mentions varying sleep position in preventing plagiocephaly (recommendation #7 or 8)!!! Do you think they will actually implement them in the near future? http://www.aap.org/policy/re9946.html I think those letters finally sunk in! Also, BCBS of Oklahoma is very interested in plagiocephaly and preventing it and want to feature it in an upcoming Member Newsletter and possibly Physician's Notes sent to physicians (obviously). I was quite amazed when our member advocate manager mentioned it to me. I hope that it is a recognition of plagiocephaly being more than cosmetic!!! Maybe the other insurance carriers and other BCBS offices will follow suit. One can hope!!! Take care! Tami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
