> did not cover it

As in you paid the whole cost, and it was $10K, and it didn't count on your deductables / out of pocket max? Or the patient paid portion was $10K, the insurance paid portion was $0, but now you're a lot closer to your maximums?

Did you file with the CICP? https://www.hrsa.gov/cicp

I don't know if this is still the case but as of Nov 21 the feds had paid zero covid cicp claims.

You wouldn't file a CICP claim for a bout of myocarditis in which "we have not seen indications of lasting damage". That's not what it's for.

Well... according to CICP themselves, as of October 1st 2022, they have only paid out 6 claims for COVID-9 vaccines - ever. Which, even by this NBC News article standard, is low. However, 5 of them were for myocarditis, 1 for anaphylaxis.

Yes, we did. It's worse than dealing with the DMV. I don't know where we are in the process other than my wife (she is a doctor) telling me not to hold my breath.
