Blue Cross / Blue Shield

I am going to keep a journal of my Kidney transplant from here forward.
I have been approved for teh transplant surgery and the donor surgery through Baylor Medical of Dallas.

Important Numbers:
Dallas Nephrology 214-358-2300
Val at Dallas Transplant Institute 214-366-6094
Wakeesha At BAylor Dallas - 214-820-6339
Verizon - Mariam (fax) 847-554-1598

Spoke with Rebecca at Anthem - Blue Cross Blue Shield today.

Explained that Baylor has said they are not willing to pay for friends to get tested to see if they are a match. Rebecca states that the testing is not covered. BCBS has stated that the testing is not covered because of a Verizon Policy.

Mariam at Verizon is waiting to contact the main contact with BCBS to find out the stance that Verizon and BCBS want to take on the payment of testing for a organ match.
