Default Punch Biopsy & Insurance
Hello Everyone,

I just got the bill in the mail for my punch biopsy and it is pretty significant. My Horizion BlueCross BlueShield decided that the nerve analysis portion is experimental and will not pay for it. That portion of the test was $2000 all on its own. They did pay some towards the biopsy itself and the immunochemistry testing.

Has anyone run into this problem?
