Default Neuropsychological Testing

I have been recommended to receive neuropsychological testing for months from many, many medical professionals.

My HMO has denied the coverage of this testing stating it's not medically necessary. I just saw my neurologist today and she is going to appeal their decision. If the HMO denies it again I am going to file a complaint with the state board of insurance.

I am not functioning at the level that I did before the auto accident where I acquired mTBI in the summer of 2010. I'm still not even functioning at 50% of the level where I was before the accident.



Does anyone here have experience with neuropsychological testing?

Can anyone tell me what to expect?



I've read some online sources about it and what it proves, but I'd love to hear some people's first-hand accounts of it.



Thanks!
