@smith777 - Thank you for your research! I'm familiar with "On Your Side" in my area, connected to the NBC affiliate station. They do very good work. I've contacted them for a couple of home-related issues. I'm on a first name basis with their producer. Your suggestion is timely. I thought about contacting them yesterday. The biggest drawback for engaging them is that it means going public, my anonymity would be gone. If this involved thousands of $, it might be worth it. For now, I'd like to keep my issue resolution within the system. But I thank you for thinking of this!

@justlucky Hi

Apologies, I did not mean to seem insensitive to confidentiality issues. Your confidentiality is so important. I assumed that On Your Sise reporters maintain your confidentiality due to sensitive medical information.

1). Would you be able to request that On Your Side maintains your confidentiality prior to disclosing your name?

2). What do you think of contacting Cancer Care and requesting that Cancer Care assist with resolution of your Insurance Billing issues and possibly present the issues on On Your Side while maintaining your confidentiality?

American Cancer Society may maintain Insurance Billing Advucacy staff member.

I feel badly that you have to jump through hoops for your your insurance approval. Hoping the insurance will be approved soon.
