I think the only thing you can do is speak to your doctor and complain as loudly as possible. This is a condition (as is general IF not that insurance companies care about that!) and they should be assisting you however they can. thinking of you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068924798079479467.post-16536692418659735292012-06-12T20:37:54.484-04:002012-06-12T20:37:54.484-04:00I'm sorry you had to deal with that insurance ...I'm sorry you had to deal with that insurance lady.

BG went through this years ago for a different problem, but in the end all that was needed was for the doctor's office to submit a different code and the bills went away.<br /><br />I would also ask them why they changed how they were billing insurance. It can be a lot easier to work with the doctor than insurance. Good luck!sass @ (In)fertility Unexplainedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322070279032931788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068924798079479467.post-82087734573590292722012-06-12T09:49:41.045-04:002012-06-12T09:49:41.045-04:00I'd definitely call your doctor's office a...I'd definitely call your doctor's office about that! It should be coded for what you are being treated for (your condition) and not what the hopeful outcome is (a baby). Sorry that insurance was unpleasant to deal with :( When I had a coding issue near the beginning of our journey, I called the business office of my doctor's office (they handle the billing) and made a case for PCOS and endometriosis being women's health issues, not just infertility issues. They resubmitted some of the tests under a different code and it ended up saving us a lot of money. Totally worth the effort of calling insurance and my doctor's office!
