HI,
I HAVE JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH MELANOMA.
THE DR WENT VERY DEEP TO REMOVE A MOE AND SAID I NEEDED SURGERY.
I WAS ALL SET TOHAVE IT WHEN MY INSURANCE COMPANY DENIED IT.
THEY WILL NOT BUDGE.
THE HOSPITAL SAID THEY WOULD DO THE SURGERY BUT NOT UNLESS I CAME UP WITH $6,000.00.
ANY IDEAS ON HWAT I COULD DO TO HAVE THIS SURGERY?
ANY PLACE WHERE I COULD GO FOR HELP?
THE PLACES I HAVE CONTACTED HAVE SAID THEY WON'T HELP WITH THE SURGERY.
ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Sorry to hear about you having problems with your Insurance, thats all you need to have to deal with right now. What state do you live in and what Hospitals have you tried?

I also have heard and am trying to find out more about university hospital here in n.o.\funny they all tell you how to make donations to help those in need but they don't help theose in need. Gale
