get the <BR>test because Alcat used to give a discount to
Medicaid patients, <BR>but that's no longer the case. I
understand just it is very <BR>difficult to get insurance to pay
for the test which is crazy.<BR><BR>As for finding someone who
will order the test, you could call <BR>Alcat, and they could
probably give you the names of health <BR>professionals in your
area who work with the test. The <BR>aternative to working with
someone in your area is that many <BR>naturopaths and
nutritionists will work with people over the
