Great synopsis. For anyone who also wants to be classified as electrosensitive and remove their smart meter, there are two codes, which relate to illness caused by exposure to radiofrequency radiation (W90.0) and exposure to other non-ionizing radiation (W90.8). However these codes are also “non-billable”, which I’m guessing doesn’t drive an incentive by the medical establishment to address EHS.
Crying out loud...it takes real work just to be sick! I recently went to a new dentist for a cleaning. Instead I had to go thorough full x-rays, gum inspection and consultation. Was told that I only needed deep cleaning on a few teeth. New to me as I thought they did deep cleaning on the entire mouth. But I was wrong. So, when I got a letter from the insurance company the request for treatment was denied! Why??? Well it seemed that the dentist, or the billing department added so many other things that not only did I not know of nor were informed of that the request was denied. So now it's up to me to contact the dentist and ask WHY were these other things added. Frustrated? Angry? Hell yes I am! Now if I go to another dentist and they do a routine check up it too will be denied as I've already had one for this year! At my age, this is frustrating to say the least!
Happy TGIF, Dennis. Wow, sorry to hear getting your pearly whites a deep clean is like pulling teeth. Cheap humor but hope it gave you a chuckle. Some of us at the Pulse found that it was cheaper to pay out of pocket for routine dental care than have insurance. And boy to the prices go down. Same with Naturopath’s who actually heal you (or tell you how to heal yourself) at a fraction of the cost. On the flip side, our doctor and dental friends are saying that it’s not that much fun being a physician. You have to work harder to get paid less..join the club. We look at it as motivation to eat right and exercise. BORING!

Interesting, thanks for sharing Roman. We did not know that.
