The Lees As you know my insurance company changed their mind after I had the surgery. This was a group plan called Klamath Medical Service Bureau (KMSB). After my husband and I paid the unprepared for bill, KMSB joined Blue Cross Blue Shield. So when I called them about replacing my dead battery this Summer after a three week time to research the project decided yes they would pay for the replacement battery $12,000.00. Now there has been another development, KMSB is being dropped by Blue Cross Blue Shield the end of September. So I no longer trust any insurance company any longer. My faith in them has been shattered. >This new procedure was recommended by my neurosurgeon some 6-8 months ago >but my HMO isn't going to cover it until the FDA approves it.
