Guest guest Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 hey amanda i got my daughter's band through medicaid they should cover a portion of it the whole cost for us was 3600 and medicaid paid 1600 of it and we covered the rest, call your medicaid office and then speak to the insurance lady at your helmet location and ask which forms of medicaid they take because as you know there is straight medicaid and the umbrellas underneathe them for us in las vegas it is hpn smartchoice, depending on the state where you live you should be able to have the option to get under the medicaid provider that will cover a portion.medicaid is medicaid they should cover some of it. let me know if i can be of some help to you which state do you live in? emily lv nv > > My name is .

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 If they are denying coverage you can appeal it. Look though the files for appeal examples to help you if you need to go that route. Let us know what happens!!! Jen Mom to Luli - 3 yrs old Torticollis, Plagio, Syringomyelia 1st referal My name is .
