Has anyone dealt successfully with Cervical stenosis without surgery?

Hi, Jennifer. I'm going to pursue this matter of insurance. Even though I don't see my insurance on the Mayo's list, I'm going tobask both Mayo and my inurance company if there's any possibility of coverage. My plan is still to meet with the local neurosurgeon, but I'm still waiting for a return phone call to set up an appointment. I saw on HealthGrades that thisfellow got 26 5-star reviews for his surgery and one 1-star review for his office staff's not returning calls … so I'm going to move ahead in any way I can. ––Ray

Ray, I hope it works out for you. You have to be in network because spine surgery is very expensive. It is worth a phone call to your insurance and to Mayo. Perhaps your insurance will have a procedure to apply for coverage at Mayo if that is not something they normally cover. I will face this in a few years too and I plan to choose an insurance plan that will be in network for Mayo for the future.
