 My Doctor says I am a good candidate for a coclear implant. So he wrote to 
Blue Cross and Blue Shield asking for pre-certification. They sent back a 
letter stating they don't do this.  Has anyone had a similar problem?
What the letter implies is they won't guarantee either way if they will pay 
or not.
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
