Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't because sometimes it doesn't matter what you tell them. I can show them all the studies that they requested to back up the procedure. And they might still say, oh, our company's guidelines, my employer's guidelines say that it's experimental and we cannot authorize it.

I think it's complete bullcrap because the middlemen, the insurance companies, undermine the physician-patient relationship. These are things we didn't learn about in medical school. We were taught that we should always do what's best for the patient, and we don't have a choice here because we get compensated by the insurance company.
