The therapist I am working with is fully in the know with the pending release and is waiting for it. I think the word is out.

That is good to hear, as if the word is out I'd expect this center to be up on the latest. Mass General is a major teaching hospital associated w/ Harvard so they should be on the cutting edge (pun intended 😄) of the field.....

As it was suggested elsewhere, I've downloaded and read the current SOC and it seemed to me like I didn't fit any of their described categories at all, and decidedly stretched the 'not all cases fit' section.... I don't want to hijack Otter's thread by going into details, but is this something that I can point at if I get pushback during my upcoming appointment?

If they are not up on it, I'd question if they are a legitimate care provider. It's THEIR job to be up on these things.
