Missy Miller, Medical Outreach Director at Asbestos.com, shares advice for mesothelioma patients struggling to find insurance to cover treatment.

Insurance is a very tricky thing. My best advice to give a patient who's looking for different types of insurance policies. Find out what center you want to be seeing at first, and then you kind of work backwards. So once you understand what plans that different bittles and doctors actually will accept, then you can kind of structure your insurance around that. So when an open enrollment comes up, if you have a PPO, and you can find out if this doctor accepts it, that's the best way to do it, because a lot of plans don't cover certain specialists.
