Insurance won't cover lumbar fusion

[R2 D2]

I live in kentucky and I'm insured by Anthem. I have been denied the exact same surgery twice now and just sent my letter of appeal minutes ago. I have had three doctors now that agree on my operation. I have been on short term disability for two months now and living in constant pain. I have scheduled an appointment with my doctor tommorow to see what he can do. This is unfair and inhumane. If any of those guys in the corperate offices of Anthem could experince the pain I go through on a daily basis, they would change their tune a little bit about what criteria must be met to cover this procedure.
