What Would Be Cost Of Evoked Potential Test To Indicate Multiple Sclerosis?

I am looking for costs for evoked potentials testing, or any other tests that may be run to indicate Multiple Sclerosis. I have already had MRI brains scans with and without dye. My company supplied health insurance is to be dropped at year's end. I will need coverage starting January 1. I have an appointment with neurologist January 7 which the wait time to get the appointment is 6-8 weeks. Unless I enroll in a healtcare plan by tomorrow, I will not be covered by insurance. On Friday, December 20th, we he employees, were not notified by our employer of the change to individual health insurance.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
As a matter of fact there is no particular diagnosing criteria which is taken as granted for final diagnosis rather, the clinical sign and symptoms if matching with score decided and at least five such symptoms has to be matched, the MRI study, and the lumber taping which could be having antibodies for MS these are the rules for final diagnosis but most important is clinical sign and symptoms, hope this could help you have nice day.
