Hi everybody I just wanted to pass this along:

My insurance denied me twice based on outdated plan criteria from oct 2014. I looked up the criteria that they used and then compared to the most recent version and realized the discrepancy.  They updated their criteria in March and then again in April 2015.

I have resubmitted an appeal but I thought this might be of help to others who are trying to get coverage for their treatment.

Most important make sure you know what your plan covers and their criteria for treatment. Look in your handbook and google terms.  I never even knew to look this up.  I hope this can be another tool in trying to get treatment.
