health Dr.s say "you have [this horrible disease/illness] take [this drug] to get over it." medication helps you get better, your health insurance covers the medication.
eye Dr.s says "you are [nearsighted] you need glasses" you chose the frames, then the Dr gives whoever needs it that prescription. the glasses improve your eyesight. your health insurance covers the glasses.
therapists are Dr’s. your therapist says "man, are you crrrraaaaa-Z! take this [anti-phsycosis medication]" you take it, get better, your health insurance covers the pills.
therapists are Dr’s. they are the ones that say "you have [this psychiatric problem] you should get a service dog" you pay hundreds of dollars for the dog/dog supplies, then finally, if you had to train the dog yourself(or with help which costs $$), or if you are on a waiting list, after possibly months, or a year, you get the dog. the dog HELPS, just like the medication, glasses and anti-psychosis medication does.
why doesnt health insurance cover the dog?
D.R.Brushmore: that makes sence, but if a DR says "take this drug" and that makes it legal for you to have the drug/medication.
if the terapist says you should get a PSD, than its kinda more than a pet, and even falls under the ADA, allowed in stores/resturaunts, and applies to the fair housing acts. so you can have the dog where your normally wouldnt, i hoped i eplained it ok, but it just seems kinda ironic.
