[quote=Anonymous]I argued for Aetna to cover our speech therapy with an outside provider because I was able to document that my son a) had a medical need for therapy (which should be covered) and b) there were no available in-network providers. I proved that the "dozens" of providers on their list were duplicates listed at multiple offices, and that here were really only two in-network providers - one was Georgetown Hospital and one was Children's and both had a wait time of 12-18 months. This was very stressful and time consuming but with support from my SLP and pediatrician and ENT and a lot of patience I got them to cover the weekly speech with a private provider for just the copay $30 for two years until he was discharged.[/quote]
