Guest guest Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Hi - I just got word that my insurance co. actually paid 90% of the helmet price. I had to pay $1750 up front, so I am waiting now to get a refund from my dr's office. I actually can't believe they paid because I am trying to get them to pay for a nebulizer now and they are needing more documentation. Anyways, I should get back $1575 which is a blessing! Good luck with your claim! Kristi son Gunnar 7 mos old Hanger Helmet 5 weeks now > > Aetna received my claim for the helmet.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 You're welcome! I know how you feel waiting to see, but just remember that if your insurance does not pay that it is for the benefit of your child and that you're doing a great thing. I would not want my son to have to deal with this later in life. Gunnar is only 10mm asymmetry, and I know that many of the others are a lot worse than him. One good thing that Hanger did was they did a scan that actually showed his head in 3-dimension. I am almost positive that this is why the insurance paid this claim. You can definitely tell from the scan that he needs the helmet. Maybe the place that you are working with can do that for you?
