I am active duty; serving my country in the United States Navy. My son was diagnosed with severe plagiocephaly and torticollis when he was 3 months old. Because of the severity, a DOC band was highly suggested. Unfortunately TRICARE does not cover the expenses so I paid $2500 out of pocket. My son is now 6 months old. There has been drastic changes with the band and numerous physical therapy, but unfortunately another band and many years of physical therapy is still needed. I will have to pay another $2500 out of pocket. This is un-satisfactory! I have served my country for 13 years now and have been to war; my family has given up a lot as well. TRICARE should help pay for the expenses and provide the care us military families deserve.Jul 2nd, 2013Someone from North Tonawanda, NY signed.

I believe that all insurances should cover this condition. We are saving lives by puting infants on there back and this is what happens it should be stress free!REPORT COMMENTS

I have worked with these children for 16-17 years and have seen a high increase in both torticollis, mostly what you might call postural torticollis and a very high increase in developmental plagiocephaly/brachycephaly. Many of thes should be preventableREPORT COMMENTS
