Question:
Has anyone in Missouri used medicaid for this surgery?

I need any information you might have, and greatly appreciate any help you can give me. I went to one of Dr. Fabitos seminars and then 2 weeks later was told he quit accepting Medicaid. Why are we treated as second rate people?    — [Anonymous] (posted on July 9, 2001)

Dr. Ali and Dr. Helling do the surgery in K. C. for medicade. Helling only does about one a month. the reason is money, state doesn't pay as much as a private ins. will, they contract at a lower pay scale, it isn't personal against us it is just that we pay the price for being poor.
