Why did Medicare team not analyze the cost of these treatments before setting rates? My take is that they never intended to cover in the first place - they just dangled hope in HIV peoples' faces, literally. The coding mess, reimbursement mess, and lack of doctors to perform the service due to low reimbursement and high cost to most who are in need make the current facial filler program useless as it is. I implore this process be reworked and some dignity be restored to the faces of HIV+'s.

I have had fillers and saved for years and used credit cards to access this health care. It has changed my life. I had a skeleton face and had to wear padded underwear to ease the pain of simply sitting. Dare to do the right thing here! Jeff Boone
