HBOT

A group of volunteer attorneys, led by Richard P. Console Jr. is organizing a class action lawsuit against Medicaid and potentially other health insurance carriers to compel them to pay for HBOT and potentially other treatments for children with Cerebral Palsy, autism, brain injury, CMI, EDS, Lime, and similar diagnoses. Richard got involved with HBOT when he represented the 2 year old daughter of his friend and client, Florence.
Florence’s daughter suffered a brain injury and was denied HBOT treatments despite the fact that the first round of treatments had shown a marked improvement.
There will not be a cost to participating parents who would like to be class members, because it is a pro bono (volunteer) project, In fact, any attorney fees generated will be donated by MUMS and other charitable organizations. Call Richard Console at 800-690-4033 to see if your child qualifies.
Being a class member will not take up your time or effort, because it is a class action.
The primary goal of the class action is to get this therapy paid for, for all class members who want it, and to have reimbursement and recognition of HBOT nationally. I urge you to participate, for your child and all children that could benefit from this treatment. Please call Richard at 800-690-4033 as soon as possible for a free telephone screening to see if you qualify to be a class member. If you are accepted please leave a message with MUMS 877-336-5333, so we can keep track of those involved. Thank you for you help. Julie Gordon
