MAC Big 3 treatment and negative sputum conversion

I strongly suggest you appeal Kaiser's denial of an outside consultation. First of all, Kaiser is a very large organization, even if they don't have a specialist locally, it is probable that they have one within their reach.
MAC is a rare disease affecting less than .5 million people, and treatment protocols are quite specific, that alone is a reason to allow access to an outside specialist.
Maybe you can include a link to the NJH video in your appeal to show the complexity of this infection?

I agree with appealing! . Even many years ago, a doctor told me a surgery might be denied, but I should appeal the decision. He said most people don’t appeal and insurance companies save a lot by denying things first. He was right and they approved it after appeal.
