ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This time on Code WACK!
We’re revisiting part 2 of a powerful series from 2024 in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month this September.
What justification did a major insurance company give to repeatedly deny coverage to treat a baby’s brain tumor? What can be done to prevent these denials of life-saving treatment in the future? To find out, we spoke to Dr. Eunice Stallman, a psychiatrist in Idaho and mother of then two-year-old Zoey, who has suffered seizures and developmental delays because of a brain tumor discovered when she was an infant. This is the second episode in a two-part series.
