I tried to work with Coresource for a while and was grateful to get new insurance. Coresource usually is an administrator for self-insured employers. Therefore your plan is all based on what your employer allows. You will probably need to go straight to your employee benefits person and ask for a complete explanation of benefits. This should help you get the initial questions out of the way. I'd also encourage you to learn more about the Fobi procedure and the other different surgeries. You might have to make a heck of a case to have them send you out of state. Sorry this answer didn't come sooner, email me if i can be of further help.
