shame on you, you fool me once

In July my gastroenterologist had me take a blood test to see if my liver was producing a certain kind of enzyme as a side effect from my medication. It came back normal so that was good. But today I got a letter from my primary insurance telling me that the test was experimental so they won't be covering it. Apparently Anthem doesn't cover investigational or experimental lab work. Like WTF? And the medical review doctor is licensed in FAMILY PRACTISE. To me that means he doesn't know shit about Crohn's Disease. And another thing: why would someone consider a test on my liver experimental when I've been having the weirdest liver enzyme tests ever for the past year?

I fucking HATE insurance companies. They're not in it to help people.
