[QUOTE="ROE, post: 46871, member: 2276"] I am glad that there may be some other options for you. I read your post earlier today but was unable to respond-I was furious for you. If I was in your place, I would've lost my cool for sure. I have found that the online physician finder for my insurance provider is not all that reliable. With difficult child's old insurance, even the book I received was useless because I could not tell who was a pediatrician. p.doctor and who wasn't. I had to call the insurance company-and even that wasn't reliable because they gave me names of p.docs that were not taking new patients, or children as young as he was. I like the idea of writing a letter to the new p.doctor with all of the pertinent information. I did this after the first consult with p.doctor #2. For one thing, the initial 60 minute visit wasn't long enough to give difficult child's history for the past 4 years. I had all of difficult child's records transferred to the new p.doctor but neither one of us could read the previous p.docs notes. Got my fingers crossed that you will find somebody who can work with you. If you do try to go out of network-ask about a reduced fee. difficult child's second t.doctor was not covered by the insurance plan that we had but they charged us on a sliding fee scale. Not sure if this is an option for you-it's still money out of your pocket. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
