Re: Re: New insurance: UHC or Aetna?

[Guest guest]

to be honost with you I still have not seen anything covered that they had said

would be when the autism health reform was signed I am still getting denied and

fighting with drs and insurance companies and still paying out of pocket for

many expenses or not being able to get these therapies because its so expensive.

especially having triple the expense of having three children with this

disorder.

Great timing! I have UHC and they have not covered my daughter's speech therapy,

much to my dismay. I work for the large corporation, so have tried to educate

the HR department on why this should be covered. We are switching to Aetna in

January and am told I shouldn't be optimistic about them covering either. Any

inside tips would be appreciated. My daughter's diagnosis is mild apraxia.
