But I've been told several different things in the last few days, so I'm waiting til I get it in writing . . . . I've been told rsd was specifically excluded (along with fibro. etc), I've been told it's just the pain managment, I've been told it's only chronic pain treatment . . . . I'm sure I've been told some other things too, but I can't remember them now.
Dear Holly -

To everything others have said, I would just emphasize that you have the right to see the exact language of the policy. First things first, you should ask to be given that portion of the policy which excludes coverage for any chronic pain treatment, if they are using that as a basis to deny you coverage.

Then we can discuss whether it's lawful.
