Denied

I'm not surprised, just disappointed. I don't know why I would think the ins company might actually have my child's best interest at heart. It is obvious that they don't give a flying fuck about the health of my child.

The denial states that the request didn't come from the special care center.

We are seeing the Dr. who saw Vivian at the hospital. She works out of a hospital in Reno. We got permission from California Children's services to continue to see her, and that she is a CCS approved provider. She is a pediatric endocrinologist, the only one in the area in fact.

The special care center, which I have not been able to get an appt for, is 3.5 hours away. I have called them and never heard back. it really pisses me off.

So I have to take her to a Dr. she has never seen, and wont see again for another year. I have to hope that this Dr. who isn't following her care will put in a request for an insulin pump. I spoke to the diabetes educator and she said that most likely they will, but like everything else I'm not holding my breath.
