If anyone has any info about this I am ALL EARS.
A former cancer patient is having major teeth problems due to chemo treatments from 5 years ago. Due to the fact that it was because of medical procedures I would assume that the health insurance would be required to cover any procedures that can be linked to chemo.
His teeth are cracking, and splitting and in an overall poor state. I'm not sure of the procedures he will need as I am not familiar on the dental spectrum of coding or reimbursement but I am not sure where else to go with this question. The market for this patient want's $1200 a month just for dental insurance because he owns a small business.
My questions are:
1. Is it possible to have the health insurance cover the dental procedures
2. If "yes" what needs to happen to ensure coverage?
3. What are the limitations to such a case?
4. Any other things not revealed by my questions?
Any help would be wonderful!
Thanks in advance.
