News Journal Letter To The Editor, October 13, 2008

Matt Denn is for the people. When I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer, the doctors needed a PET Scan to evaluate the extent of the disease.

I did not meet the “criteria” for the insurance company to pay for the test. When I called Matt Denn, he fought the insurance company, always staying in touch by e-mail or phone.

Due to the efforts of Matt Denn and my physician, the insurance company finally paid the $4,000 fee. This test proved to save my life.

Do I want a lieutenant governor who will go the extra mile? Do I want a lieutenant governor that will work for the individual? Absolutely.
