Letter of Medical Necessity

Does anyone have a template I could use regarding a letter of medical necessity that my doctor has to send to my insurance? What has everyone's experiences been in dealing with your insurance and these types of letters?

Thanks for all the help!!

Kat, you've got mail.

Laura, I need your email address. You can send it to me in a private message if you would like.

If you e-mail your address, I can send you a copy of the letter that I used for both the band doctor and insurance. I will say that it will take a while to get all your medical information into on letter. I happen to have files at a lot of differant doctors and I even had to go to a couple of offices and look it up and write the letter for the doctor to just type and send.

I'm completing the last step of requirements for my insurance I was hoping you could email me an example letter of medical necessity to my email address: smithlm31@bellsouth.net

Thank you so much!!:thumbup:

If anyone can email me a copy i would love it as well. karileighsmith@aim.com

Curious about this letter. Prior to 2 weeks ago, I hadn't been to a Dr. in like 4 years. So the PCP I went to had never met me prior to seeing me 2 weeks ago. How would they write the letter, since they really do not know much about me besides what I told her. I mean I told her how long I'd been overweight and stuff.

Shirley can you send them to me @toytoy2@comcast.net

Thanks

If someone can email me a copy sample at joi.stowes@gmail.com I would greatly appreciate it. That is the last piece to my puzzle.
