Hey Roshelle, I googled Medicare lung transplants and found this information on this site:

<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.medicare.gov/Coverage/Home.asp
">http://www.medicare.gov/Coverage/Home.asp
</a>
Medicare covers transplants of the heart, lung, kidney, pancreas, intestine/multivisceral, and liver under certain conditions and, for some types of transplants, only at Medicare-approved facilities. Medicare only approves facilities for kidney, heart, liver, lung and intestine/multivisceral transplants. Pancreas transplants are not limited to approved facilities. Transplant coverage includes necessary tests, labs, and exams before surgery for you and the organ donor, follow-up care for you and a live donor, and procurement of organs and tissues.

Thanks Lauren I haven't had time to check out medicare's site yet so thanks for doing a little 'leg work' (or mouse work<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">hehe) for me. Let us know how things go with the baby! I'm so excited for you.

I don't mean to scare you or anything, but our Allan here had Medicare and they wouldn't cover a tx for him because he had cepacia. So you'll have to check into that. I hope it works better for you than it did for him.
