Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Hello Everyone, Has anyone had any luck with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City. They denied us so we paid out of pocket for our son's helmet. I was just wondering if anyone has appealed to them and won if they had any pointers on how to get them to pay for the starband. Any pointers from anywhere would be helpful. Our son got his band right after he turned 6 months. He had a flat spot since two months. We asked the pedi. and she gave us repo exercises so we did them for two months and tried to keep him off the back of his head as much as possible. At his 4 month appt. she thought his head would round out but gave us the ortho's # if we wanted to check out the band. We went ahead and seen the ortho and they said that he had a moderate to serve case of Plagio. He doesn't have tort or anything else just plagio. so we decided to go with the band. After just two weeks you could see the difference! and now he has been in it for 5 weeks and it looks like a normal childs head, the flatness is almost completely gone. It is amazing how it works and how fast it has made a difference. Anyways, just thought you would need some background info for pointers. Is there any medical info on the effects if plagio goes untreated. I have been doing some research and can not seem to find anything on that. Thanks so much!
