Just diagnosed with prostate cancer (T2a) and would prefer proton therapy but have been told Kaiser Permanente will not cover it as a treatment option. Has anyone had any success getting KP to cover proton treatment?

You might want to post this on HealingWell.com. It's a heavily trafficked discussion forum and you're more likely to get a response to this particular question.
best wishes,
