@desertsavage, I agree with @tomrennie. Please contact Mayo Clinic Billing & Insurance to discuss insurance questions.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/billing-insurance/contact-us
Patient Account Services at 844-217-9591
@desertsavage Get Mayo to connect with your her physician, they will supply all the admin support to get an approval if at all possible.
@desertsavage, I forgot to mention. You may appreciate following the discussions in the Transplants support group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/transplants/
Also see the Expert blog that might have information that is helpful for you as you consider Mayo Clinic for transplant.

@desertsavage Hi and welcome to Mayo Connect. I have Blue Cross and Mayo accepts my insurance. I too am in Arizona. Please double check with Mayo and Blue Cross.
