Check out the information on http://preemiecare.org/ related to this and if you have any questions or problems just give us a call. Good luck and please keep us posted. <BR/>MaureenMaureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14020913406224041568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840677354779529279.post-10158240918406758152007-10-09T12:29:00.000-04:002007-10-09T12:29:00.000-04:00That's insane!

There's usually an address given on the claim rejection, saying where you can write to have the claim reconsidered.<BR/><BR/>Insurance companies are basically in the business of NOT paying out money, so sometimes they reject things automatically without considering them, and don't really look at things until they're resubmitted--like customer service departments that first send a form letter and say, "If this doesn't answer your question, here's the REAL email address to write to."<BR/><BR/>If your pediatrician wants it, and the kids were preemies, this is the kind of thing the insurance should give some THOUGHT.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840677354779529279.post-21764232252115603222007-10-09T01:30:00.000-04:002007-10-09T01:30:00.000-04:00oh my heck Amy! does the insurance company not se...oh my heck Amy! does the insurance company not see what the cost difference is between the shots versus one of the babies being in the hospital with this?<BR/>Cason had this once, very minor compared to the baby he got it from. I don't know understand the reasoning behind some of their decisions sometimes.
