My personal favorite insurance story comes from a neurologist I know. They were trying to get a prior authorization approved for a curative hemispherectomy. For those outside the medical field, that basically boils down to removing half of someone's brain to try to cure an uncontrollable seizure disorder. This is usually limited to patients under 4 years old to maximize motor and language development, but I digress. After much arguing with the insurance representative, it was approved on the grounds that the patient only gets one.
