thank you for the information and response Paul. BC/BS is refusing to pay for it. Is the million dollar lifetime cap still a thing in insurance? I have to wonder how close he is to that.

Since he does not have a job, this insurance is the only choice we have right now and we can have it for another year and a half. I feel our options are very limited financially and insurance wise. Maybe BC/BS will come through at their own pace but things are on hold until then. His treatment center is Mayo Clinic which is 4 hours north of us. At least they didn't send him home to die like another large hospital he was going to!

I see we have another option southwest about 3.5 hours. good to know
