He called and said he needed to schedule a follow-up appointment that needed to be done every year for my SCS, but was not straightforward about what the appointment was really about or that it was not covered under insurance. I am on a very limited income and I cannot pay $40 per visit and be forced to pay for four visits or I cannot continue my pain management.
