Teleclasses


SlingshotI offer teleclasses on the three most common bases for denying coverage for cranial orthosis:
  • Overcoming the Not Medically Necessary/No Functional Impairment Coverage Denial
  • Overcoming the Investigational/Experimental Coverage Denial
  • Overcoming the Cosmetic Coverage Denial
How the classes work

Classes meet by phone - you can take the class from the privacy of your home or office, no traveling required! (If both parents wish to attend the class, each person can participate by calling in from separate phones or using a speaker phone).

When you register, I will provide you with a telephone "bridge number" which you will then call at the start time for the class, to join the conference call. Each class is one hour long, and we go over the reasons for denial in detail and go through a step-by-step process teaching you exactly what you need to know and say to overcome the specific denial.

What you will learn
  • The fallacy behind the insurance industry's claim that there is no proof cranial orthosis treatment is necessary or effective;
  • Which medical studies demonstrate cranial orthosis is effective, and those that document medical conditions related to untreated Plagiocephaly;
  • How to use your policy's definition of medical necessity to win coverage;
  • How to demonstrate FDA approval of your cranial orthosis to overcome the investigational and cosmetic denial;
  • How to demonstrate that your insurance company's medical study criteria is unreasonable;
  • How to overcome the 5 criteria to support an investigational denial;
  • How to demonstrate cranial orthosis treatment is necessary to prevent functional medical problems.
What else is included

I also share the persuasive resources and documents that essentially serve as evidence supporting your case. As an added bonus you will get my appellate letters and submissions that were successful in winning coverage for the cranial orthosis!

Fees

You can sign up for individual classes at $50.00* per class or register for a package of all three at the discounted rate of $125.00*. This is a tremendous value considering the amount of money at stake. [Normal long distance telephone charges may apply.]

* Class fees are per family, not per individual, so both parents may attend the classes for one price.

Class Schedule

Each class is held once per month, on Monday evenings from 8pm to 9pm Eastern time. If you decide to register for the discount package of all three classes, you may choose any of the available dates that best fit your schedule.
