Default Insurance and recovery

Dale --

In this case, I was fortunate to have a blend of "service-connected" disability insurance and private insurance that covers out of network, experimental, and unproven procedures, which I understand is somewhat rare. My consulting firm is self-insured.

Either way I am thankful and would have paid rather than have a fusion.

Will be sure to follow your advice and take my recovery slow.

Matt
