Medicaid Equals No Aid

Has anyone heard that Medicaid does not cover CyberKnife? What if this is the only viable treatment for your AVM? What then?

Are you sure it doesn’t cover it? I seem to remember that was my only insurance when I underwent my cyberknife surgery. I think that if the doctors agree that it is your only treatment option, then they write up a justification letter to the insurance company so that your procedure will be covered.

Jenny,
Thank you for the information! You have given me HOPE!! I was devestated when my doctor’s office called and told me that Medicaid wont cover my procedure. Thank you again for the information. I greatly appreciate it.

You’re welcome. Just continue to work with your doctors. I wish you the best
