Hi, all.
I'm on a rant at the moment 'cause I just found out that my insurance doesn't cover hypnosis or acupuncture, and only covers consultations with dieticians for those with diabetes. ( NOTE: Not that I'm unhappy with Heather's diet, but I may be a celiac spue chick or at the very least gluten intolerant. I think if that's so, I'm going to need to talk to someone about my diet to make sure I'm getting the right nutrients! ARGH! )
I'm raging, here! That insurance won't cover these things is ridiculous!
If IBS is, indeed, the most commonly diagnosed gastro-intestinal disorder and is, indeed, the 2nd leading cause of worker absenteeism, don'tcha think insurance should cover these alternative treatments?
So my point is this: how many of you have insurance plans that would cover these types of services? I'm very curious to know if it's just my cheap-o company that's the problem, or if this is really wide-spread.
Any and all input would be greatly appreciated!
