Yep. I'm dealing with a situation where speech therapy as rehab from a surgery is covered by by plan. But the hospital just submitted the claim with some general code. The insurance says they need the therapist to change the billing code. They won't allow us or the surgeon to submit anything to prove it should be covered. We have to wait for the inept therapist to change the code. All the while thousands in bills hang over our heads and we wonder if insurance will pay out.

And rarely, if ever, can you get the insurance company to admit what the secret billing code is before you have the procedure done. You have to hear it in whispered conversations from those in the know.
