The purpose of this list is to discuss our personal experiences with insurance companies and state and federal agencies in hopes that someone else may be able to take the information and learn more on how to help their own children.

Topics include insurance companies, therapies denied, "codes" successfully used to get services covered, and to discuss appeal processes. Also, questions or comments about state and federal benefit programs, including any new programs that might come available.

NOTHING ON THIS LIST SHOULD BE TAKEN AS LEGAL OR MEDICAL ADVICE. NOTHING ON THIS LIST ENSURES PAYMENT OF SERVICES. This list is ONLY FOR SHARING PERSONAL EXPERIENCES. Because no one leads identical lives, and because different insurance companies have different coverage, what applies to one child may not apply to another.
