Has anyone run into this problem?
Yes, Blue Cross is wonderful. They tell you that there is no pre-certification, and then cherry pick what is experimental. I am STILL grieving three claims for testing.

The biopsy is the gold standard and this is what Blue Cross Anthem (yes, my family's identification did get leaked) is still doing.

We already pay so much in premiums.

Hope you can find a way for maybe your provider to help.
