Speech Therapy-Insurance Coverage Issue- Need Help

[Guest guest]

Insurance Co. is BCBS. They just denied coverage for speech therapy for the

following reason: the therapy is not being conducted to " restore " speech (e.g.,

unlike someone who had a stroke). Currently, my daughter's diagnosis is

" expressive language disorder " , I dont have an official spectrum diagnosis. Is

anyone aware of any statutes and/or rules I can look to (that I can submit to

the insurance co.) to change their coverage decision. She really needs the

therapy because she is not getting the appropriate/enough services in her

current place program. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
