    Can insurers decline insurance without reasonable justification?

    That's all fine and good Mark, and we have no issues at all with them excluding specifics, (we did take issue with blanketly excluding the entire cervical spine system based on recurring headaches). The part I'm struggling to understand now is, why wont they give us in writing the explicit...
