Deb,
Insurance did not pay for my dental work but my dentist did agree to work with me to bill my health insurance. My health care provider (Blue Cross) declined payment and then my dentist split the bill 50% out of the goodness of her heart.

Also, for skin care, every day after treatment and at bed time I applied a prescription lotion called Biafine and I think it really helped my skin.
