Is your doctor an oncologist? Make a complaint and appeal with the insurance, get a lawyer involved. If needed pay for it yourself, researching the cheapest way to do it. Ultimately your treatment may be more expensive due to what they are doing.

Medicare does this kind of thing too, maybe not with scans etc., my father got no wheelchair approved until he had passed. I asked several doctors and finally took him to a wc clinic, numerous forms had to be filled out by doctors etc. they said it would take three months, more like 4-5. We were able to buy a good transport wc ourselves at the start just to be able to get him to doc appointments and around the house. I should have just bought a regular chair myself as well on ebay.
