HI LAURA..I HAVE READ SEVERAL PROFILES FROM KY PPL WHO HAVE MEDICAID ..AND THEY ALL SAY THAT IF THE SURGERY IS MEDICALLY NECESSARY..IT IS USUALLY PASSED WITHIN A WEEK..BUT YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE COMORBITITIES..CANT SPELL EITHER LOL HOPE THAT HELPS....NETTE

Laura, I checked with Mountain Comprehensive Care there in Madison County. They do the evaluations, and if you have medicaid or medicare they base it on a fee scale..you might want to call there and see what they say. Marsha Keck 415 Gibson Lane ,Richmond, KY 40475 (859) 623-9367...Good LUCK ! Lisa
