I did have it, but I don't any longer. The essence of the article is that the insurance companies will frequently deny a claim or request for approval for a procedure, even if it IS within the policy based on phrasing, semantics, etc. We just shouldn't take that laying down, and fight for what we know we should have approved. The article had nothing to do with GP or wls, but just a general article about people who were denied major coverage, and who ultimately got what they should have had in the first place.
