I dug back thru his post history. As of last fall he said a couple of times that he is 55.

Thank you all for your responses! Yes 55yo male with private insurance (Blue Cross/Blue Shield Regence). I am in very good health and have very mild PD due to Trimix injections. I expected that my implanting physician's office would go to bat for me and be proactive in dealing with my insurance company. They pretty just gave me the codes and told me to call myself.

Sounds like you need a more experienced surgeon.

He's actually one of the country's top implant surgeons and I was very much impressed with him...his office staff's ability to navigate insurance reimbursement, not so much! I'm seeing now that no doctor's office wants to deal with vexing and time consuming insurance claims, they just want their money, whether from you or them.
