I know a little girl who needs a genetic test and her insurance will not pay.This family needs help and I wast

SHe has a liver disease and mental probs and I need to know ways to get this cause out there on the web.ANy ideas

I would suggest calling a local pediatric hospital in your area. Ask to speak with a social worker at the hospital. Tell them your situation & they can direct you to the person or department in the hospital you can speak with. Most hospitals have a charity fund that you can apply to for aid.

Also, talk with the child's pediatrician about writing a more comprehensive diagnosis for the request of genetic testing. Many insurance companies deny first requests. If the request is denied a second time, they should contact the state insurance commission & ask for a hearing. One of these 2 ideas should produce a positive result. Good luck!
