Re: Locations that offer the STARband and/or Hanger

[Guest guest]

Hi,

We have MDIPA which is under United Healthcare. So, I'm not sure if your plan

is the same. But, Hanger (we looked at the one in Reston) and Starband in

Columbia are in network. MDIPA requires authorization before they will cover

the band. I know you are far from Columbia, but it might be worth checking it

out anyway.

KidCap. So far, we are very pleased with the results. Our daughter grew 3mm in

the very flat spot on her back right side(right tilt tort) in only 3 weeks. She

really looks great already. She sees an orthotist in Rosslyn(Eastern Cranial

Affiliates/Infinite Technologies. )

places that offer the STARband or Hanger. I've been to Cranial Tech but want to

check out all options plus my insurance, UHC won't pay for the DOC Band. Hope

someone can offer suggestions. Thanks!
