Houston, we have a problem

Ok, so I am impatient. I keep watching the online referral site to see when my referral for surgery goes through and nothing. Now usually, the notes show up within a few hours and my paperwork was submitted on Tuesday (supposedly). So I called Tricare. They have not received the paperwork. So, of course, I say "wow, my Dr.s office is NOTORIOUS for not sending paperwork in", the gal, says, "Oh honey, here, have them fax to this number and I will make sure it gets done" with a sly smile, "Oh Thank you so much, I will call them right away!"

 

So, then I call my Dr.s office, and say " Oh My Gosh, I started getting worried when the paperwork wasn't showing up online and sure enough, they SAY they haven't received the faxes. Can you believe that, my Insurance is NOTORIOUS for not getting things." Brandi says, "I will re-fax the paperwork right away for you, I hate to deal with insurance companies some times." I give her the new number, she thanks me and all is well in my world yet again.
