Oh, and I meant to mention that some plans will not cover for anything that occurs in the first 6 months (or longer, up 2 yrs) of the new policy. You really gotta' read between the lines with these benefits.

As far as finding a neurologist, the NMSS is generally a good resource. Some people have found "MS Specialists" to be the most current with MS testing, treatments, etc., versus a general neurologist.

Look online for Neurologist references. Our chapter has a lot of information on line. Go to www.nmss.org or click on the link below.

http://www.nationalmssociety.org/fin...ter/index.aspx

Most chapters have a reference tab.

Good luck!
