OT migraine - Thanks apljack.

The story of 5 injured cops being denied care by a new workers comp intermediary is creating quite a stir in Atlanta.

At significant risk of falling into the Frist-Schiavo trap, I've seen a police union videotape of this woman which suggests she's in poor shape. Of course, it would.

The injury happened some years ago - her police partner was killed in the incident.

Why would she and her doctor want her to have migraine meds if they don't help her?

Is it standard practice in this field for a new workers comp firm to suddenly deny meds that had been reimbursed for years, with no prior communication to the patient, who finds out at the pharmacy when she goes to refill her scrip?

Do you happen to know Novapro's reputation?
