Meci-cal covers the cost of this treatment and almost any other treatment but most insurances do not cover that high of a cost, please get your story right! Some do but most insurance hits you with a large amount of the cost so most people never get it done since sometimes their share of the cost might be 20 or 30 thousand and most people do not have it! We know of one such person that needed heart surgery her share was a third of the cost of over $100,000 now if she was on Medi-cal the cost would have been covered!
