Is a dexa every 2 years enough?

Yes, you submit the appeal, but you should get some supporting documentation from your dr if the appeal is based on medical issues (test not justified, too soon to repeat test, etc).
The last time I submitted an appeal of Medicare's denial of some blood tests, I included a short letter from my dr explaining the condition he was evaluating and that was sufficient to get the appeal granted.

Thank you for sharing your success upon appeal. For the first time, i have had a few claims denied as NOT medicallly necessary based upon the physician’s diagnosis. The other one was an ambulance denied as medically unecessary albeit i was in anaphylaxis/ The ER dr was “our to lunchL and wrote that a rash was the only type of allergic reactions i have rather than the veracity of anaphylactic reactions and auto-immune triggered afib. I would appreciate any pearls of wisdom you have for writing an appeal: thanks
