Not sure about this

So my youngest boy goes counseling twice a month. He has since their mother left them. But today the counselor said he felt that he was doing fine and thought it was time to stop his appointment. They insurance company said he has reached his maximum limit on appointments this year.

I don't agree and I told him that. I said he still misses her and he still struggles with her leaving him.

He said well im sorry but if the insurance won't approve anymore appointments he couldn't do anything until next year.

I said I would request a new counselor and he said he wouldn't recommended it and my insurance wouldn't approve it either. He's reached him limit this year and would have to wait until next year to return to canceling.

I asked my hasn't my daughter reached her limit.

He said that was coded differently because my daughter has a diagnosis and my son does not.

He said he was sorry but it was out of his hands.

So I it's not his fault but holy f@ck I'm pissed off right now

I tired to call my insurance but apparently people start celebrating the 4th of July on July 1st and got voicemails.

So yeah I'm pissed right now

I used to work for a health insurance company, and I am so horribly sad to tell you that unless your son has a diagnosis that justifies the visits, the doctor is correct.

That doesn't mean it is right, or fair.

One thing you COULD try is to pay for the visits out of pocket in order to continue them. If you pay the doctor in cash, he will usually give you a considerable discount.

@Cigarguy101 Health insurance companies think this way: Not medicated, no more problem.
