Hey Pixie,

This is actually a requirement for anyone getting an SCS. They just want to make sure you understand what it entails. It isn't a big deal and I've only heard of one person getting denied because of it.

Don't take it personal it certainly isn't just part of the protocol set forth by the manufacture/insurance companies.

Good luck,
Tessa
