    You are 100% welcome to come to the blossom support group, who told you can't was giving you bad info.
    We have people from other doctors all the time. let me know when you want to go and I will meet and take you as my guest for the first time. so you will be comfortable to go any time you want.
    Support Groups are very important for your success. I attribute my success more to the support group than the surgery

    dereksgram reacted to TapSnap in Post Surgery Cooking Show?   
    Ok I am having surgery some time in Jan. or early Feb. I love to cook and I cook a lot (reason i am getting surgery. lol)

    Any way I was thinking of starting a YouTube Channel for a post surgery cooking show. I would do a new recipe once or twice a week on healthy foods and portion sizes. I would show the recipe and cook it up to show final product.

    Would anyone be interested in this?

    Would it help anyone in any way?


    Thanks,
    John

    I've completed all Medicare requirements for VSG and will go on my surgeons list for October (I'll get my firm date end of August)! My surgeon says I have a slam dunk claim, and there is no logical reason I would be denied coverage. In my Medicare Administrative Contractors region of G (MN, WI, IL), the hospitial sumbits the claim "after" the surgery is complete. My hostpital feels comfortable with their chances at a successful Medicare claim so VSG here I come! Seems backwards, and potentially risky for both the hostpital and patient but thats the way it works here.
    I'm crossing my fingers and hoping the decision making (MAC) approves my VSG claim without making it difficult on me and the hostpital!
    Check out this link for more indepth information about how making claims with Medicare for the VSG works....
