Hmm. I'm not sure what that means when it comes to MediCal.

They take it at Stanford but I don't think they do the DS there.

That's who I called . The guy said they weren't contracted with my particular insurance.

Ok so I have anthem/medi-cal. According to the people at anthem, they will cover any surgery as long as it is medically necessary. Thats good considering I want to get a DS. Well, as it turns out, there is only 1 doctor in sacramento that accepts my insurance. But as of november, that hospital isn't covered by my insurance nor do they perform a DS. I called some places in San Francisco with no luck. No one likes medi-cal or they are not in my 'network.'

I don't know what else to do or where else to try. I really need this done for my health. Anyone know any doctors that would accept me ? Or is there something else I can do?

Any advice is appreciated.
